As a lifelong fan of RUNAWAY TRAIN, I listened to Mr Konchalovski in fascination, as he told me his film logic axiom over dinner, at the home of a friend, another director. We talked of many things, but he emphasized this— if a person would like to spend their life making movies, you need first...

Your heart is pounding. You turn the corner, slowing the car, seeing all the police vehicles flashing at the end of the street, and the crowd held back by the cordon of street cops. A house in a suburb, a car with the driver’s door open. The first victim you see is half in, half out of the car,...
