Poor Old James B. Harris


He just never gets it right does he? I mean, the Bedford Incident was good but not great and Boiling Point was awful. Maybe he should've stuck to producing Stanley Kubrick films. But still, you;ve got to feel sorry for him.

No, I'm sure he accomplished more than you in your pathetic life of criticizing people. Even after 10 years of posting this, I can't imagine you've done any thing so great as direct SO many famous actors so well known today in just one movie.

This movie was supposed to be a character driven crime film. The studios tried to turn it into a Action thriller even though it was mostly done with filming by the time Passenger 57 was a hit. Wesley Snipes role was originally small and the focus was on Dennis Hopper's character. This is another great example of a studios screw up trying to change a movie at the last minute.

Go watch Fast Walking and you will see how Warner bros cost cinema a potentially great auteur.
