At the premiere of the new movie ‘Three and out’ last Monday, Leicester Square wasn’t filled with celebrities as usual, but with a very different kind of audience. In a reaction to the movie’s plot, train drivers were handing out leaflets saying “deaths on the railway are never funny.”

The comedy is based on the fictional idea that if a train driver runs over three people in a month, he is taken off duty and gets a 10 year pension. “It’s a very serious subject for us. It destroys lives. The drivers are never the same again. The film trivializes it,” an executive train driver said.

A spokesman for London Underground, who allowed filming in the tube, said the movie “could further add to the distress of people affected by suicide.” The distributer naturally said “difficult issues portrayed in the film have been handled sensitively.”

Are the train drivers overreacting or is this really a macabre movie? The fact that they made up the premise about the deaths makes it a little strange. But I don’t think any of the drivers saw the movie. Just like me, so I don’t know.
