Carpenter always said he saw Escape as a ‘western’ movie (casting Lee Van Cleef, and Kurt Russell putting on his best Clint Eastwood act). Now that I hear the theme song played on violin, I can definitely see where it could just as easily have been the theme for a classic Western movie! Carpenter is a genius 😎👍

[@charlesflinnill978]

Yea for sure, there was a little bit of Clint in Kurt.

Let me tell you my real life story. My father took me to see this film and is one of my favorites of the period including _The Warriors_ and _The Final Countdown._ I see The Twin Towers in the background and spoke about my experience 20 years after September 11, 2001 and 10 years prior as well. I have some original footage on my channel as proof. An elder lady in my church reminded me that I made an impression on her over a year later. I was uplifted by her statement never expecting that she would remember. In other words, I just realized I really did escape from New York and wanted to share this story.
