Based on the classic TV series about a surgeon accused of killing his wife, and his search for the one-armed man who actually committed the crime.
One of the most universally popular films in years at the time. Hollywood's biggest star, a can't miss premise and Tommy Lee Jones' Oscar winning performance push this way up the scale of action dramas. By the way, that train wreck scene is done with a real train.
Directed by Andrew Davis.
Academy Award for Best Actor-Supporting (Tommy Lee Jones).
