Quotes2

  • Narrator: [Opening Narration. Viewers see two assailants beating up Jesse Stransel in an alley] Tracton, New Jersey. A small industrial town where a passerby has summoned the police to a mugging in a dirty alley.
  • [Viewers see Richard Kimble driving an approaching delivery truck labeled "Savano Auto Parts]
  • Narrator: But this senseless beating is about to take on a far more significance to a man not even a witness to it, a man named Richard Kimble.
  • Narrator: [Closing Narration. Viewers see Richard Kimble hop aboard a moving train] For each of us there is an occasional moment of fantasy, a search for a straw man of our own. But Richard Kimble can only hope that the memory of a face caught once in the glare of headlights is made of something other than straw.
