The Plot?
What was the motive behind the senseless shootings?
shareIn the theatrical version it is never explained. Apparently he's just some nut. They do hint that he might be there to kill the President but the President ends up not coming and that story concete is quickly forgotten. In the even worse made for TV version the sniper was there as a way to lure the police away so a heist of famous paintings can happen in broad daylight with no problems.
shareI haven't seen the TV version and don't intend to, but that seems pretty rare that they would change the plot substantially to add the heist element just so this could air in prime time. Do you know of other theatrical films that were altered so much for TV broadcast?
