The Train

From the Editors

Paris, August 1944. With the Allied army closing in, German commander and art fanatic Colonel von Waldheim (Paul Scofield) steals a vast collection of rare French paintings and loads them onto a train bound for Berlin. But when a beloved French patriot is murdered while trying to sabotage von Waldheim's scheme, Labiche (Burt Lancaster), a stalwart member of the Resistance, vows to stop the train at any cost. Calling upon his vast arsenal of skills, Labiche unleashes a torrent of devastation anddestructionloosened rails, shattered tracks and head-on collisionsin an impassioned, suspense-filled quest for justice, retribution and revenge. Inspired by an actual event and highlighted by spectacular stuntwork and visual effects, The Train is "an edge-of-your-seat, thrilling, suspenseful and superior film" (The Motion Picture Guide).

Good WWII Flick
Burt Landcaster always gives a good performance and this movie did not disappoint me. This Movie has a good plot and good actors to make it interesting and suspenseful. It is worth watching.

"The Train"

Being an avid train "Buff," I found this movie to be very-well produced. Of course, when you have a "Big-name star like Burt Lancaster, it's hard to go wrong.
I'm very pleased that I purchased it on DVD. And, no doubt, I'll be viewing numerous times. I'm a big fan of any movies dealing with World War II. So, anything in that genre would be of great interest to me.
Thank you for the outstanding service with regard to the product and its delivery. I plan on ordering more items from Amazon as the need arises.

I received the wrong item !
I ordered by eMail from Amazon a DVD of the movie entitled "The Train" staring Burt Lancaster (et al. ) and received a VHS instead. I immediately sent an eMail to your customer service department but did not recieve a reply nor even an acknowledgement that my letter of that was listed for a DVD for which I paid more than the unplayable VCR I received.

I have been a loyal and regular customer of Amazon for many years and in general have always been pleased with the service and products I have received in the past.
I hope you can correct your recent faupxas by finding for me a DVC of The Train and shipping it to me without additional charge.

At the very least least Amazon could have had the courtesy of acknowledging my dissatisfaction.

Please check my back records of merchandise I have purchased fronm Amazon over the past several years and please make some effort to make amends for the mix-up !
