Passenger 57

Can anyone confirm my suspicions about the names of two of Charles Rane's minions in Passenger 57? Okay, there's Vincent and Forget, and then we have two others: a dude with long curly hair who is shot by Rane after being using as a human shield by Cutter, and then the guy who Cutter kicks off the ferris wheel at the fair.

Having looked at the original script, wherein Rane was called "Wolfgang," I noticed there were no names amongst the minions, merely physical descriptions. Looking at the credits, though, yields the names "Matthew" and "Allen." I'm not 100% sure on this but I'm guessing Matthew is the dude who falls from the ferris wheel, while Allen is the fellow shot by Rane.

Can anybody confirm this, 'cause I really liked the falling-off-the-ferris-wheel death enough to want to submit it.

Can't help you i am afraid Kooshmeister, i vaguely remember passenger 57 being one of a slew of action films released at the time - snipes is a good action star i think, but i thought the whole film was centred on a plane.

Alas, I have only watched the film once, so i dont recall it landing - unless there is enough space on modern jumbo jets to incorporate a small theme park

It lands after Cutter messes with the fuel line (or something to that effect). While it's on the ground, Rane briefly makes a bid to escape, getting off the plane with Vincent and the guy I think is Matthew, and they hope to disappear into the crowds at a nearby fair. Cutter, however, somehow intuits that the fairground is where Rane went so he heads thattaway which leads to the action sequence on the ferris wheel (and Matthew's death) and the merry-go-round, and Rane's temporary capture.
