    Editorial Reviews

    John Frankenheimer directs Burt Lancaster in the tense spy thriller The Train. Lancaster plays Labiche, a French railway inspector. Allied forces are threatening to liberate Paris, so Col. Franz von Waldheim (Paul Scofield) is ordered to move the priceless works of art from the Jeu de Paume Museum to the fatherland. The head of the museum (Suzanne Flon) attempts to convince Labiche that he should sabotage the train on which they are transporting the art. Labiche is more focused on destroying a trainload of German weapons. After his friend is killed trying to stop the train with the art, and after a consciousness-raising conversation with a hotel owner (Jeanne Moreau), Labiche resolves to save the antiquities. Lancaster and Frankenheimer had worked together previously on both Birdman of Alcatraz and Seven Days in May. ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide All Movie Guide

    March 13, 2004: If you've not seen this late at night then you've missed a real classic. Suspenseful story of one man wrestling with his conscience and realizing that he could do his part to fight the bad guys during WWII. A great story, well-acted and photographed. If you are a fan of Burt Lancaster, John Frankenheimer, or just a railroad buff, this film won't disappoint. Highly recommended!
