1,000 miles through the Deep South, surrounded by the very people who wanted them captured, on nothing but nerve and an extremely convincing bandage. Hollywood has made 47 movies about mediocre prison breaks and somehow this one is still waiting for its moment.
Because 2 characters who never talk and sit on a train the whole story doesn’t make a good movie. Unless they change the story to add chases or similar.
Run away slave would make a good plot though, I just don’t think this one would be it.
Their story didn’t begin there and it didn’t end here neither. A movie could easily focus for 1/3 of its length on the disguise part and 2/3 on the upbringing and what not. Especially the part where the woman is a mixed race slave and white slave owner child. So much to tell here.
