NEW YORK — John Woo’s “Hostage”, the first of three films that will appear on the BMW Web site over the next four weeks, breaks Thursday at bmwfilms.com. The campaign, from Fallon, Minneapolis is a follow up to last year’s highly-acclaimed internet film series, “The Hire.”

“Hostage”, which won the best action short film award Monday at the Los Angeles International Film Festival, tells the sordid tale of unrequited love at a fast food empire. Clive Owen returns in his role as the hired driver, who in this case is commissioned to deliver ransom money to a kidnapper (Maury Chaykin) who has taken hostage the CEO of Big Top burgers (Kathryn Morris).
