I watched this movie last night and I absolutely loved it. Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones both killed it. The pacing was perfect and intense. It was all around an amazing film. I wondered why it didn’t win best picture that year until I saw who did win it.
I love how when they’re arresting the other escaped convict, the girlfriend is just screaming and Tommy lee Jones just casually goes, “shut up!”
My favorite is when he’s talking to the guard about finding the leg irons with no legs.
I think that’s one of the strongest parts of the film is the realistic scale with the marshals. It was very clear that they knew what they were doing and did it well. Kemble only got by barely and used his brain
