First trailer for MAN ON THE TRAIN starring Donald Sutherland
Here is the first trailer for the English-language remake of Man on the Train. The original French film was released in 2002 from director Patrice Leconte. The remake is directed by Mary McGuckian and stars Donald Sutherland as a "retired poetry professor" and oddly U2's drummer Larry Mullen Jr. in his acting debut. Mullen stars as "a thief whose plans get thrown off track when he meets Sutherland in a small town where he's looking to knock off a bank."
I enjoy movies that involve bank heists and for some reason have a love of trains. If you are looking for a good train thriller watch Transiberian and Silver Bullet.

Here is the synopsis:
A mysterious criminal (Mullen Jr.) rolls into a small town planning to knock off the local bank, assuming it will go off without a hitch. But when he encounters a retired poetry professor (Sutherland), his plans take an unlikely turn. With no place to stay, the professor generously welcomes him into his home. As the two men talk, a bond forms between these two polar opposites, and surprising moments of humor and compassion emerge.
