The Fugitive
I never "got" the fascination with this picture -- basically a big chase film with yet another wrongfully-accused guy on the wrong end of the law. But Harrison Ford is awfully good, as usual, looking genuinely frantic and haggard for the first time since, well, Frantic.
Tommy Lee Jones also has the role of his life. Fugitive mania still continues, spawning a sequel (U.S. Marshals) and a TV show reviving our hero's run (albeit, a show that only lasted one season). Go, Harrison, go!
A new Special Edition DVD release adds a whole bunch of new features that we can't tell you about because Warner Brothers didn't send us the disc.
