The film is directed by Andrew Davis, and stars Harrison Ford, Tommy Lee Jones, Sela Ward, Joe Pantoliano, Andreas Katsulas, and Jeroen Krabbé, among others. The film tells the story of Dr. Richard Kimble (Ford), a man who is framed for the murder of his wife and sentenced to death, and then escapes custody while setting out to find out what really happened.
The Fugitive was both a critical and commercial success, earning rave reviews and finishing out the box office as the third-highest-grossing film of 1993 domestically. The film was also nominated for seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture, with Jones having won a Best Supporting Actor Oscar for his role.
