Curiosidades

Ransom, known in North America and some countries as The Terrorists, is a 1975 British crime film starring Sean Connery and Ian McShane and directed by Finnish director Caspar Wrede.

Production

Paul Wheeler said he was paid £7,000 to write the script and novelisation of the script. He said the script was originally set in Jordan but relocated to Norway when British Lion did a deal with Norsk Films.

According to Michael Deeley, managing director of British Lion Films, the film was put together by British producer Peter Rawley. He arranged the script and engaged Sean Connery and Ian MacShane, then went to British Lion, who agreed to provide the $1.5 million budget. They sold US and Canadian rights to 20th Century Fox for $800,000, and sold the rights for the rest of the world for $1 million, making a comfortable profit.

Filming was carried out in Norway, with a large part of the filming taking place at Oslo Airport, Fornebu. Technical services were contracted to Norsk Film. The aircraft displayed in the hijacking is a Boeing 737-200 in the livery of Mey-Air.

Production started in January 1974. During production, Mey-Air defaulted on their payments to Boeing Commercial Aircraft, who sent representatives to Fornebu to repossess the aircraft on 26 February. Filming of the aircraft shots had begun but were not completed.
