Silver Streak
By train, by plane, by the edge of your seat - It's the most hilarious suspense ride of your life!
Directed by Arthur Hiller
Produced by Frank Yablans Presentations, Miller-Milkis Productions
A breezy, comedic thriller that balances slapstick humor with genuine suspense as an everyman gets caught up in a murder mystery aboard a cross-country train.
A somewhat daffy book editor on a rail trip from Los Angeles to Chicago thinks that he sees a murdered man thrown from the train. When he can find no one who will believe him, he starts doing some investigating of his own. But all that accomplishes is to get the killer after him.
