Bullitt

Just watched this the other night. McQueen's "realistic" cop movie had a great influence on later cop movie and TV shows, but by today's standards it has a number of just dumb incidents. The funniest is during the car chase when McQueen and the guy he's chasing pass the same green VW bug three times in less than a minute. The "prop" VW is clearly poking along at about ten miles an hour as the two speeding cars zoom by it. Funny how it shows up on the next block two more times as they pass it again. The last time there's another prop vehicle in the oncoming lane that is clearly not moving at all. All in all, however, the movie holds up a lot better than a lot of movies we thought were so cool and hip back in the 60's.
