New This Week: On Swift Horses and The Legend of Ochi.

Thursday Dec. 21 at 8:30pm

New York City policeman John McClane (Bruce Willis) is visiting his estranged wife (Bonnie Bedelia) on Christmas Eve. He joins her at a holiday party in the headquarters of the Japanese-owned business she works for. But the festivities are interrupted by a group of terrorists who take over the exclusive high-rise, and everyone in it. Very soon McClane realizes that there’s no one to save the hostages — but him.

The very pinnacle of the ’80s action movie, and if it’s not the greatest action movie ever made, then it’s damn close.

Empire Magazine

Die Hard is as high tech, rock hard and souped up as an action film can be.
