Runaway Train Montage
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 18 мар 2021
- Since my Ford V Ferrari video was blocked world-wide, I decided to give this 1985 action classic a go. It ended up being longer than I expected. Runaway Train starred Jon Voight and Eric Roberts as prison escapees that hop a train, only to have the engineer die. Rebecca De Mornay is also along for the ride as a crewmember and John P. Ryan as the obligatory evil prison Warden who will do whatever it takes to recapture his convicts. I dumped the synthesizer soundtrack that pretty much every action movie in the 80s used, and used tracks from Interstellar.
Which got this video blocked in Cuba, Iran, North Korea and Syria. Okay.
When will movie companies learn that the Dead Man Switch has nothing to do with the brakes, and kills the power, so the locomotive will just coast to a stop.

Easily the most emotional, and the BEST, montage I have ever seen in my life! You did a 100% perfect job of bringing this heartwrencher of a movie to it's proper place in moviedom. I don't cry much, but this had me on the verge of tears, watching the passion, the emotion, the quality, and the humanity that was encased in this montage. Kudos to you, sir!!!
Thanks. Glad you liked it. Share the link!
@@warrendubeau851 Awesome. This is one of the most vastly underrated movies ever. Where was Hans when this was made? Thank you!
I remember watching this movie and crying as a young boy. I couldn't have been older then 5 or 6
I agree. This montage is very well done. Kudos.
Agreed! What a shock ending this movie has! Oscar Mannheim, a Notorious Crook, ends up saving two precious lives near the end...and ends up taking a corrupt Cop with him, on his way to his demise.
To me, at the very last, he turns out to be a hero!
My father owned a VHS rental shop when I was 5, I could take home any movie I chose, Robocop, Terminator, Predator etc. One day I chose Runaway Train. I’m 38 now and still have this VHS with me. Watched it thousands of times. This isn’t just a movie to me, it’s a big part of my childhood. Amazing montage. Thank you
You gonna clean that spot
This movie is a masterpiece and will be watched forever.
This could probably be the most underrated movie in history. It mind blowing in its story, acting and cinematography.
People don't know what they've lost without watching this most powerful movie, indeed!
In my list of "Best movies ever." I watch this movie every few years, especially in Winter !
What are some other good ones on your list?
@@GOLD3NCIRCL3 Terminator2, The Taking of Pelham 123, both versions, Assault on Wall Street, James Bond, some Indianna Jones, Jurassic Park, Star Wars, etc. etc. etc
One of my favorite Jon Voit movie!!! 🍿 🎥
Wow you made this perfectly anyone could watch this and get the whole point it was like watching it over again.
Underrated movie
i agree
Mannie was going out a Free man , while the warden was going out imprisoned.
One way ticket to freedom, becomes a one way trip to hell, I truly love this movie
One of the most hardcore endings you'll ever see. The original music for the final scene is even more powerful.
Yes sad that the original music wasn’t played here at the end! (gloria - Vivaldi)That is one of the main point which Made this ending so unforgettable (with naturally the character of Jon Voight)
I RUNAWAY TRAIN APROVE THIS MONTAGE
That train is easily the scariest machine in any movie. More than Christine or truck from Duel. Because it is fucking real.
Props to the camera man for capturing all of this.
What a ending film, and what three-four years films and music, THE BEST.
1982-1986
To be real manny has balls of steel
If you look at all the major characters, there is not one likeable person to be found. Manny is a career criminal who is nothing but trouble. Buck is a punk. Sara is a lazy employee who stole a nap on one of the locomotives. Warden Rankin is a martinet. Dispatcher Barstow is a douche. It helps make the movie more real. There is no stereotypical hero to save the day. You have a group of seriously flawed people who have to overcome an extremely difficult situation. This film should have won an Oscar, and Jon Voight should have won more than just a Golden Globe for best actor. Cannon Films cranked out a lot of dreck in the 1980s, but this was a masterpiece of scripting, acting, and filming. It is a classic, and one of my all-time favorite films.
A masterpiece. A great movie, by the director, the photograpy, the comedians, the editing. The ending is tragical but amazing.
The most inspiring , emotional , action movie ever !
In death, he finally found freedom
You have good understanding about life...
R.I.H Berstow Rickan, 1986-2023.
Wow the score from Interstellar works amazing with this! love both movies and the combination is very well done! Absolutely love this!
This movie I will remember always that the good guy doesn't always live bit brings his enemy down with him for the greater good of his friends that to me is a true hero. Jon Voight brought this character alive and I absolutely will love it forever
Those heavy couplers are like a vice when the slack bunches down a hill. Manny’s fingers were squeezed off like a bunch grapes.
Jon Voight should have gotten an Oscar.
This is freakin' EPIC!!! I love Runaway Train and love Interstellar and can't think of a better combination! You sir definitively have special skills and are not afraid to use them. :o)
Thanks. I try. For some reason I just thought of combining the two. Check out my other videos here.
love this movie
This is simply amazing
Glad you liked it.
amazing movie
The prison warden played the interrogator in 1984....forgot his name..but a absolutely brilliant actor.
John P. Ryan. Always played a great villain.
John P. Ryan
John P. Ryan. He was also in "The Right Stuff."
This movie was actually better then the new "unstoppable " train movie
I kinda disagree but I respect your opinion
Nice editing of a well-edited film ...
I was about to comment on how Manny uncoupling the lead unit should have dumped the air and caused the lead unit to stop, but then I remembered the brake shoes got burned off back in the yard so it wouldn't have mattered.
Best scene and music matching To be honest I have just mentioned some seconds ago to a friend that the score of Runaway Train matches scenes as well, as scenes in Interstellar. Apart from Conan the Destroyer these are the only films when I have a WHOA feeling because of the symbiosis of a film with its music.
I wish they had paid for a proper score for the movie. But in the 80s, producers always went for the synthesizer soundtrack because it was cheap. A well-done score can really make a movie. Sicario is one of the best movies I've seen in years, and the soundtrack blended so well with the visuals to complete the movie.
More, much more, to the story that what meets the eye and ear. It was a magic trick, a magic trick.
Amazing video! You made a great montage of one of the best train movies ever! Thank you so much for making this video! ❤
This is deep!! Watch closely and imagine the facts
I just watched the movie and because of the soundtrack change you made it made it so much better, even though I will say the synth in the 80s movies I love this movies synthesizer kinda creeped me out so I prefer this for sure, one of the greatest videos I've ever seen hands down
Glad you liked it. Like I've said before, the movie would have benefited greatly with a properly composed score. The end sequence with Manny riding the locomotive as it disappears into the fog of mythology while the Russian choir sings really stands out from the rest of the movie. Now imagine if the rest of the movie had that musical impact.
This video is a work of art...
Brilliant.
Thanks!

You paid tribute to a great movie very well..
Plot synopsis: Two convicts and four locomotives decides to run away, much fun were had.
Nice one. It's interesting when they made the trailer for this film they used the music Henry Mancini wrote for Lifeforce and cut it (at least in the version on the DVD release.) in a way that suggested the film was 'swashbuckling' action adventure, rather than an existentialist prison break film.
I've seen several trailers that misrepresent their movie. The trailer for Drive made it look like a F&F knock-off, not a brooding character study. The trailer for Whiskey Tango Foxtrot made it look like a comedy, when it was a drama. The "Ballroom Blitz" trailer for Suicide Squad made it look like an action comedy. Then there's The Dictator, where the only funny scenes in the movie are in the trailer.
I don't know why they do that, since you're turning away your target audience, and attracting a different audience that will hate your movie because it wasn't what they were expecting.

Exceptional movie and montage!
Thanks!
realistically at the end they would have stopped because the air supply in the brakes would engage for the anglecocks being open.
History epic movie wow a bad guy turns to a hero to save his friend if I'm right legend Jon
Your work is amazing! Thanks!
Revisited this movie yesterday since my teen days. Although captivating and well good cinematic, the very crude acting bothered me and still has again. However, the plot itself is entrancing as the train itself becomes a character on its own by looking sinister and all out destructive to anything on its path. The finale dissappointed me as a teen back then. At that age we might have some other expectations, but its finesse in the poetic sense is being valued at mature age. It has been an interesting rewatch I must say.
It was nominated for Academy Awards in Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor and Best Film Editing.
this is so sad im going to cry
Thank you for making this montage, and I think Ronald Shank said it best.
You're welcome. Share the link.
"When will movie companies learn that the Dead Man Switch has nothing to do with the brakes, and kills the power, so the locomotive will just coast to a stop."
Not quite. The Alerter system on US railroads is nullified if the locomotive independent brake is actuated. That's how the 'Crazy Eights' runaway managed to breeze merrily through the Ohio countryside for more than 60 miles without an engineer, having burned out the brakes. Yes, it is possible. However, the Emergency Fuel Cutoff buttons on the engines under Multiple Unit Control in the movie should still have worked, which would have stopped them.
Maybe things are different in Canada. I've been told many times that the Dead Man Switch will kill the power to the wheels, and the train will just coast to a stop. Back in the 80s a friend of mine had a brother that was a Porter with VIA, and would describe the engine crews wandering around the yard during stops looking for rocks that were heavy enough to place on the throttle plate and nullify the Deadman Switch.
@@warrendubeau851Not a railway worker here, but I'm told CN and the major US Class One railroads use similar alerter systems. The dead man's switch may have been superseded owing to the unnecessary fatigue it would impart to an engineer (driver in UK parlance) needing to keep a foot down in one place for hours. Maybe the old locos in the movie did use that system.
I remember a scene in the 1970s comedy-drama Silver Streak, in which someone jams a tool box over the dead man's pedal, causing the train to run right through the station.
@@markuswx1322 Guys used to get around the deadman pedal by placing weights on the pedal. After the Hinton disaster, investigators discovered a lunch box was wedged into the pedal. One of the engine crew was sleeping in the back, and the one driving either fell asleep or had a heart attack and the freight train blew through a siding where it was supposed to stop and let a VIA passenger train go by. A lot of people died because of that one. In the 90s it was a button that had to be pressed every 15-20 seconds or so.
@@warrendubeau851 Absent newer systems like Positive Train Control, I believe the typical alerter system still consists of a button like that, or more precisely, a control input of any kind, most commonly the air horn, to prevent a power cutoff. Common practice with freight service is a bit different from passenger service in that when assembling cars in the yard the air hoses are not connected.
The scenario in Runaway Train is quite consistent here, a combination of a wide open (notch 8) throttle and a locomotive independent brake application. In the Crazy Eights incident the engineer deliberately dismounted the engine to align a switch, thinking he had applied enough braking to slow the train. In fact neither the train brake nor the dynamic brake was applied and the train was moving too fast for the engineer to remount. The locomotive independent brake simply burned out as the train accelerated.
Best movie
Most amazing montage great music scenes I seen this movie it arguebly the best movie we need more like this movie and montage
Thanks.
Fantastic, congratulations, thanks.
it's like a long trailer that shows the big parts of the movie
The warden wouldn’t have died if he didn’t board the train. Manny was dead anyway on that train I have no sympathy for the warden. His motivation was to bring back manny alive but on an even playing field manny came out on top
This is actually pretty cool.
They will miss him 😭
Good one
This video is a keeper.. Very Epic well done 😎👍
Thanks!
EXCELLENT WORK MY FRIEND
Thanks!
The music is on par🤘
Thanks. Synthesizer soundtracks were in every action movie from the 80s, and unfortunately, really dates them. I just wish they had spent a few bucks and paid a composer to write a proper score. I think that's why the end scene music stood out so much. The choir singing as Manny rides to oblivion really worked. I always liked the Interstellar soundtrack and thought it would really help the emotional impact scenes in this movie.
I saw that movie when I was on Ringling brothers
What a movie.
Have to say this was well done enjoyed it
Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it.
12:26-this was a familiar scene, if not the only scene from this movie I remember was Manny riding the locomotive with the cop handcuffed in the cabin.
Thats so sick riding a train into obvlivion! I would have still jumped, maybe hit soft snow!
But under that layer of soft snow is either solid rock, or frozen solid ground.
Great Movie !
never thought I'd see someone dr. Strangelove a train
You left out the part where Barstow screams, "I'm The Devil!!!!"
Two of them they become sad seeing their own friend killing him self with the runaway train 😢
Classic
Good editing
That scene near the end with Manny on the train
And thus manny became free.
He rode into mythology....
The ending was so sad 😢 that he didn't stop the runaway train
Great movie....|
Que buena peli
3:34 is I favorite
One of the best movies out there, but damn all they have to do is to jump into that soft snow
And underneath that few inches of soft snow is solid rock. Which you would be hitting at 60 MPH.
I watched that before.i want watch it again but I I don’t have internet
AKIRA KUROSAWA!!!
5:32 everytime i hear this song all i can picture is my neighbor a former b17 gunner flying over germany and comming into contact with german BF109S
I used to read everything about the 8th Air Force I could find. It was absolutely terrifying. You had to tighten up formation when the 109s and 190s attacked, but that meant the 110s and Ju 88s would start firing volleys of rockets into the tightly packed formations. So they had to loosen up, which made them easier prey for the fighters. And this went on for hours.
I've had few encounters with luftwaffe vets in ct and one told me how he had a 2 hour dogfight in France
I do not know what is better. "Runaway Train" or "Emperor of the North."
11:22 Ranken thought he could intimidate his way out of that by yelling. So many people look at truth before tone of voice. Manny didn't fall for that kind of bull.
Questo cast di Attori sono semplicemente mondialmente Eccezionali loro hanno la stoffa eccellente scuole di recitazione.

This montage is incomplete. Not even a snippet of the Chase Manhattan speech.
I wanted to include this scene, but the sequence was too long at almost 3 minutes. Just a choice between that speech and the confrontation scene between Manny and the hero-worshipping Buck where Manny crumbles and realizes that yeah, I'm not the hero, I'm the villain.
I really liked the video montage, however i have to disagree on the music choice at times. The spacial Interestellar soundtrack took some of the drama to some of the scenes you showed in my opinion. Specially the last scene where Manny finally uncouples the first engine. The music is kinda happy and triumphant whereas the original soundtrack from the movie features a sad epic vivaldi piece. I think that no other tune could fit that scene better.
Yeah the cheesy 80's action movie soundtrack is kinda dated, but at least just that last scene hits the hardest with the original music in my opinion.
The music (Detach) where Manny uncouples the locomotives, is from the scene where Cooper detaches from Endurance to give Brand a chance to reach Edmund's planet. They're both sacrificing themself so that someone else can live.
Why the Train not running out of diesel?
This is only entertainment. It's funny how you hear Eric Roberts say, "I don't believe her bull****." That's right; all they had to do was hit the emergency fuel cut-off switch and or disconnect the cables and hoses, just like they did in the film, and the train would come to a stop providing that it wasn't on a hill.
So what do the last lines actually mean... ? 'No beast so fierce....' Is he above or below feeling or pity .? Hes not a beast. Is he worse or less ?..
The line is from Richard III. In nature a predator will sometimes show pity towards what it would usually prey upon. But Richard III is so cruel that he's worse than a beast, because he would never feel pity on anyone.
It goes back to Manny's response after Rebecca De Mornay's character calls him an animal. He mocks her saying he's worse than an animal. He's human.
I wonder what happens to the Leader train When the movie ended of the train was Approaching something like a derailment
Probably he crashed
Line Her Through
Alguém pode me dizer qual é o nome do filme
Runaway Train.
@@warrendubeau851Obrigada
Is that soundtrack from interstellar?
Yes it is.
No . This movie came out first. So it would not be possible.
God the acting in this is SO bad but it’s so interesting lol
Music at 5:30?
No Time For Caution
Ok thx btw I enjoyed this video hope you and ur family are alright
What is that the spinning thing on top of the train? 0:46
It's most likely an exhaust fan blowing out the hot air from the radiators.
Oh
But why spinning so slow?
@@heriirsandy1425 Because it's starting up.
This train is CRAZY FAST!! WOW
What no dynamic brakes?
It's Hollywood.
Not every locomotive was so equipped, especially since railroad companies put them only where they were conceivably needed-such as over mountains. These were two road-switchers, an old freight and a general purpose.
Runaway Train Montsge
I'm free.. I know what he meant by that...
...and Voght didn't get the Oscar that year....
At least he got nominated. But award shows are as legitimate as a high-school popularity contest.
The ending was confusing
