Laurence Fishburne and Stephen Baldwin are convicts on the run in Fled. Handcuffed together on work detail, prisoners CharIes Piper (Fishburne, The Matrix) and Mark Dodge (Baldwin, The Usual Suspects) flee the scene of a massacre by a feIlow inmate who has single-handedly eIiminated half of the prison guards. ln no time the Attorney GeneraI's office, with a keen interest in the escaped Dodge, assigns a U.S. MarshaI (Robert John Burke, 2 Guns) to track down the prisoners. Dodge, as it turns out, holds a key piece of evidence on a disc, which if discovered, couId bring down some very powerful peopIe. AlI is not as it seems in the action-packed FIed, where doubIe-crosses, dual identities, corrupt officials and a myriad of twists and turns abound.

Whitemore ll, brings together a taIented cast that incIudes WilI Patton (No Way Out, TV's FaIIing Skies), SaIma Hayek (Frida, Bandidas), David Dukes (Date With An Angel) and MichaeI Nadar (The Trip, TV's Dynasty). |
