Set Piece: The Bus

Location: Dillsboro, North Carolina, USA

Production Budget: $44 million*

This 1993 film featuring Harrison Ford and Tommy Lee Jones is based on a true story. It’s about a guy who busts out of jail after being wrongly accused of offing his missus. He then goes on the run to nab the real killer and clear his own name.

The shoot was quick, but getting the movie made was no walk in the park. It took five years of planning, nine different writers, and a whopping 20 script versions!
