Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Chases...a few faves...(a little long.)

Here are a few of my favorites (from Hollywood made action films);
1. French Connection-Hackman chasing the Frenchmen (F. Rey-Frog 1) through the subway, finishing with the finger wave, and frogman escape. Breathtaking.

2. The Wild Bunch-The chase which ends in the slow motion bridge explosion, and all the men and horses into the river. I think Holden gives R. Ryan a wave, before the explosion.

3. Bullitt-Steve McQueen chasing from the bad guy from the airliner, onto the airport tarmac, and then back into the terminal (McQueen doesn't even draw his handgun until he reenters the terminal!). Wow!

These aren't even the "marquis," show stopping scenes in the films. I just thought they were great, exquisitely produced set pieces. I could think of a hundred more. Love this forum.
