What happens

Red Line is a 1996 American action film written and directed by John Sjogren, and starring Chad McQueen, Dom DeLuise, Michael Madsen, Roxana Zal, Jan-Michael Vincent and Corey Feldman. Immediately prior to filming, Jan-Michael Vincent was in a severe car accident that left his face badly scarred. He can be seen still wearing his hospital ID wrist bracelet in the movie. It was written into the script that Vincent's character had been in a car accident, and he needed new shocks from McQueen's character, a mechanic. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
