Are there any comfy train movies or tv shows? Bonus if they also take place during winter.
murder at the orient express is so far the gold standard of what I am asking for. north by northwest and the early Harry Potter movies also fit the bill but sadly only for a few short scenes.
my lego train derailed
Night Train (Polish movie), excellent drama/mystery
Sugarland Express, Pryor at his funniest and impressive ending sequence at the station
are those movies comfy?
>Sugarland Express
Nope, the Richard Pryor/Gene Wilder train movie was called Silver Streak. Hasn't aged too well, but it does have some funny scenes in it
train accident kino
Unironically the Polar Express
It's a kids movie but it's very comfy and wintery
Runaway Train is great and is set in the snow
cool poster
Based, John Voight peaked in this. The score is fricking immaculate too.
murder on the orient express is peak train kino
Horror Express
Transsiberian
really just suggest watching the old detective series Poirot (protag of Orient) if you want more comfy murder mystery vibes
>Horror Express
This was pretty good until Telly Savalas shows up as a Russian cossack with a Bronx accent lol. Lee and Cushing were great though
>Horror Express
that seems very much like what I was asking for. Thanks
The Lone Ranger has 2 long extremely kino train scenes
From Russia With Love. Also, which version of Murder on the Orient Express did you watch? Because the Branagh one is the weakest adaptation of it, the Albert Finney movie and the TV version with David Suchet are both much better.
Dr Zhivago but it's more of a Red war train
The Taking of Pelhm One two Three.
a top kino choice
Not during winter but still great
If I had to film an anthology series I would probably have it take place on an luxury train ride from Sankt Petersburg to Berlin during a 20s century winter where the passengers pass the time by telling each other stories.
Darjeeling Ltd
>Man on the Tracks was one of the first films of the Polish Film School and as such influenced the whole generation of young directors who participated in the movement.
>The film tells the story, mostly in flashback, of a railway worker who is fired from his job for alleged sabotage of the Socialist methods of work.
Man on the Track is true train kino. Directed by Munk, it is a nuanced discussion of both the Stalinist and Pre-War ethos of the Railwayman and the emerging generational conflict. It is also one of the very few films where a large fraction of scenes takes place on a locomotive, and where no smoothbrain artistic liberties are actually taken with how railways actually work.
There was a restored version with English subtitles on YT but I cannot find it anymore.
UNSTOPPABLE
Galaxy Express 999

Terror Train
