Overview
About the Film
The Fugitive is a 1993 American action thriller directed by Andrew Davis. Harrison Ford stars as Dr. Richard Kimble, a vascular surgeon wrongly convicted of his wife's murder and sentenced to death, who escapes during a prison transport bus crash and a subsequent train derailment.
While desperately searching for the one-armed man he saw fleeing the scene of his wife's murder, Kimble must evade the relentless pursuit of U.S. Marshal Samuel Gerard, played by Tommy Lee Jones, whose dogged, brilliant investigative skills make him the most dangerous pursuer Kimble could face. The train crash and the subsequent dam jump — Harrison Ford leaping from the top of a dam into the churning water hundreds of feet below — were among the most spectacular practical stunts of the 1990s.
Tommy Lee Jones won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his performance as Gerard, whose professional admiration for Kimble's intelligence grew as the chase continued. The Fugitive earned $368 million worldwide on a $44 million budget.
