“Passenger 57” quotes

(1992)
Movie Passenger 57
Title Passenger 57
Year 1992
Director Kevin Hooks
Genre Thriller, Action
Plot – The FAA - Federal Aviation Agency – had been telling it for years: the safest way to travel was by plane. Safer than the train, safer than the bus, even safer than driving one's own car. The FAA, however, did not take into account the margin of risk with having Charles Rane on board. In fact, despite having his hands restrained by a sturdy pair of handcuffs, he still manages to create trouble. Rane was the mind behind four airplane bomb attacks in a year. The FBI had been able to attribute only two of them to him with certainty, but with a hint of pride Rane insists that his lawyer make sure the prosecution does not cite numbers at random. Known to the secret services for his ruthlessness, he is as a matter of fact the most dangerous type of terrorist: intelligent, charming, fearless ... and absolutely insane. He is so devoid of any feeling or remorse as to ask, with extreme ease, a man about news of his family only a moment before putting a bullet in his brain. In the custody of federal agents, Rane is now directed to Los Angeles where he will be tried. It is astonishing, however, that the transfer is precisely by plane.
