LOL....My Lil' Sister still has the toothpick Newman gave her from the scene where they were walking and talking after leaving Bar, That scene was filmed on 184th Street between Jerome and Walton Ave's
That was just amazing 👏. I grew up in the 42 area and was there during the filming. My brother even came out in it. The sad part is nothing was Hollywood staged. It was all as real as it gets. I still live here and witnessed the devastation through to the Renaissance. This video brings it all together. Thanks a million. The same brother that came out in it was the one who shared it with me.
THIS is how ALL now/then videos should be done. The care to find not only the location but the lens and exact view using that local length. That's the extra step. RESPECT for a superb production.
Excellent stuff. Fort Apache - The Bronx is a really a forgotten film as it's been out of print in circulation for years. What it did show was the grittiness of NY at the time. (See Wolfen, Prince Of The City etc). I have friends that stay in the area now, I'm sure they will be fascinated in this now.
THIS REALLY MADE MY DAY THE AMOUNT OF DETAIL IS UNMATCHED !!!!!! WATCHED THIS MOVIE IN BROOKLYN WHEN I WAS A KID AND THE SETTING AND TONE WAS SO AUTHENTIC !!! THANK YOU
I’m 70 Life long New Yorker Started my business when I was 21 I’m in Harlem and the Bronx every week It’s absolutely amazing how these neighborhoods changed for the better in the last 50 years I love the energy Mostly hard working people doing their best Mostly
It was a crime that the greedy Powers That Be allowed it to get that way but in the end the ground was too valuable to let things remain in such a horrible circumstance, so Mayor Ghoulani and the military police occupation was brought in to restore law 'n order without which there cannot be good.
I’m a Fireman in the Bronx for the past 20+ years, and never realized that the bodega on the Northwest corner of 173 & Clay is where they filmed the EDP with the knife scene. We drive past this location almost every tour I work. The vacant where Pam Grier kills the guy changing the tire is now the Cross Bronx Motel, and a woman’s shelter now.
Yeah, when I finally figured out that bodega location, I was amazed to find out that it was literally 400 feet from Webster Avenue, which used to be my main biking route to/from Manhattan. I probably glanced up that hill looking for oncoming cars hundreds of times.
Great job! A highly underrated film with a steller cast of actors who gave terrific performances. In the late 70s my father was the Leasing Director for Ridge Dodge at 85 NJ-17, Wood-Ridge, NJ; now East Coast Toyota. He leased the production the green van Paul Newman and Ken Wahl used prior to procuring the city bus. So pleased you vlogged this as I wondered where many of these locations were and surmised many would look completely different with the gentrification of the Bronx. Again, nice work!
This brings back so many memories! I can recall following different clips of this movie in the neighborhood, they used the 42 precinct house as the 41 precinct. The REAL 41 PCT house was on Simpson St. & Westchester Av.
Great video, and great film. My mom grew up on 152nd & Morris, in the late 40's through the 60's, and we have many relatives left in different parts of the Bx and buried in St. Raymond's. Over the years I have seen the Bronx change from visiting both those same relatives and paying respects. Have not been recently but it's always interesting to see the developments.
Thanks for commenting. I've lived in every borough of NYC except Staten Island and the Bronx has always been my favorite. The community feeling is so strong there.
2700+ views & only 90 👍's....??? C'mon people...the time & effort this must have taken to find those precise filming locations deserves at minimum a click of appreciation & recognition from all viewers...& the music is excellen too...!!! A great video.....👍👍👌👌👏👏
This is really good footage! The Bronx is my old stomping ground from the 70s through the early 2000s. I know pretty much every location shot. Brought back lots of memories as a kid. This is such a great movie! With many famous celebrities of the time oeriod, especially Paul Newman! My father was actually on location when they shot the stuff near The Cross Bronx expressway. Thanks for doing this
ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING VIDEO...THROUGH TIME YOU HAVE SHOWN HOW MUCH HAS CHANGED ...AS A KID I WALKED BY MANY OF THESE LOCATIONS ...I SAW THE MOVIE WHEN I WAS ABOUT 8 OR SO ... I USED TO LIVE ON ANTHONY AVE. DOWN THE BLOCK FROM CLAY AVENUE AND USED TO TAKE THAT EXACT ROUTE MANY DAYS. THANK YOU FOR PRESERVING HISTORY .
Very cool video, was one of my favorite movies growing up, was in 8th grade when it came out. My dad was in the textile business, he took me to the 41st and 42nd prescient s back then. So nice to see the Bronx on am up swing, great video!!
Grew up on E. Tremont and Arthur Ave. 176. Me and alot of my childhood friends. We were proud to see our block in the movie. Santana was playing paddleball that afternoon. Who knows, knows..💯
Very well done - a good movie filmed on location in the Bronx with before and after shots . In many cases whole buildings gone , trash picked up , graffiti painted over . New York made a huge improvement here .
My building is the one beside the hill they chase the last guy from the dead-end ! My friends had me watch this when I was much younger but watching this now as a grown adult is even more chilling to see it! ♥️
To all the Dislikers - ''The Snake has a dance and a Snake has a style and a Snake will sneak up on you everytime, The Snake is a cold blooded killer baby...But you don't care because you too busy lookin''
@gluecement plenty,Ed Asner was the niceties person. He bought 4 or 5pizzas and sat down and had lunch with us.Newman kept more to him self. I worked at the 42 for 6 or 8yrs.
Cobblestone streets: The reason there were so many was because they used to be used as ship ballast to balance out the ships. For instance, if you say are sending out coal, but receiving wheat, wheat is lighter than coal, so in order to keep the ship deep in the water, these bricks were put aboard the ships. Just think: those cobblestones that we used to drive on could have come from Russia or anywhere else in the world. Old streets in London and Amsterdam, Peraus in Greece had the same bricks. It was a standardized size and weight.
Wow the bronx it was like jungle Back in the days drug killing gang Vacant lot the bronx change alot Remember watching this movie Most part ill forgot that good rebuild look better now only crime still haven't changed
0:25 That's what I love to see; A longtime business/resident (Chrstiana) that has endured all the changes around them, under them, over them and survived.
The major difference between then and now is back then spaces were open. Less gates, less fencing off, less cars parked and way kess people. So many restrictions today in terms of your own personal mobility that it puts pressure on each individual to the point of being unable to communicate with others in your immediate surroundings. This external constricting of physical space creates an internal psychological constricting of space. When you constrict space, you are closing off areas. As a result, you create a society of people who are closing themselves off from everyone else.
Very nice, my HS buddies tell me I wouldn't even recognize Bed-Stuy. I remember we used to say, never run from an overweight cop, they will instead of giving chase.
I lived by that block where the handball courts are at. Most of the guys playing I knew them. He jumped the fence. I lived on that building. Used to hangout on that fence with my boys. 176 Arthur Ave.💯❤️ That park was dangerous at night when that movie came out. No lights and robberies and rapes happened there. Messed up.
I thought that church would have been an historical landmark and thus could not be demolished. @@gluecement I was wondering for the longest where the park was. Those wide open spaces with the church in the background produced a feeling of serenity. As they keep closing down these open areas by packing in more buildings, it's creating a feeling of claustrophobia, of feeling compacted and tightened up.
@@failyourwaytothetop Yes, the Archdiocese declared St. Augustine’s Church no longer sacred in 2011, allowing it to be demolished. But at least the apartment building that went up in its place is a Catholic charitable housing tower for lower income families.
Aside from the shots filmed at Intervale, Hoe, and Westchester aves, just about every other scene was filmed outside of the actual 41 precinct boundaries.
Yah bomber helmet snatcher runner was played by Lance Guecia, he died in 1999 age 40 while serving time in a NYC prison for multiple robberies of cab drivers and Korean grocers, yep a real criminal. From the grapevine I hear he was a junkie , died of an overdose in Rikers.
Whoever made this video knows the Bronx. Well done.
LOL....My Lil' Sister still has the toothpick Newman gave her from the scene where they were walking and talking after leaving Bar, That scene was filmed on 184th Street between Jerome and Walton Ave's
Freakin cool! I always though his "toothpick action" felt forced and unnatural... but super cool that she still has it.
Not a word spoken, straight to the point, quite brilliantly produced . Give us more please
That was just amazing 👏. I grew up in the 42 area and was there during the filming. My brother even came out in it. The sad part is nothing was Hollywood staged. It was all as real as it gets.

Please post positive proof pronto
Pics pleasantly preferred
I'm a Keating I also watched them make this movie tall Italian costar said he was from Arthur av I think
It looks a lot better now. Has the bronx and south bronx really improved that much?
@@see6052i was born 1980 and grew up in that area from prospect ave, hall place to Simpson st its not as rundown in 2024 but still a high crime area

The regeneration of south bronx is incredible, how Charlotte street in particular has changed is mind blowing 🤯
Saw this when it came out and was a bit underwhelmed....but watched it again last year and being older i appreciated it so much more.❤️
Thus is absolutely amazing!! I was involved in some of the location filming if this movie and you have done it great justice! Thank you
Thanks. Any old filming stories? Did any neighborhood protests affect production?
Finally a location video with no narration!! 👍🙏
I remember the 70’s and 80’s in the Bronx. From 138st to 188th was a living hell. 179st and Burnside ave are still terrible. Great video
I was in my early teens late 70's early 80's. Ny was raggedy but fun as hell lol

Also the dental and health clinic by Arthur & 176

It was hard to find, hard to watch. First rendition of what a cop movie is.
Amen to Newman, it's as good as it gets. If it had a crime to solve...WOW
You sir are by far the Best locations channel on u tube!! Very well done! Give this man a locations net flix show!!
Paul Newman was really an Actor you could respect and his line of food was also respectable and seems like even after his passing still is!
This brings back so many memories! I can recall following different clips of this movie in the neighborhood, they used the 42 precinct house as the 41 precinct. The REAL 41 PCT house was on Simpson St. & Westchester Av.
I loved this film,seen many times,great acting all round, especially Pam Grier

That was awesome you have to do more videos of the Bronx before and now from movie scenes
Thanks. Check out my WOLFEN and MARTY videos... lots of Bronx locations in those.
Great way to show then and now…awesome job!!
Very well done. Love the backround music. Not sure if it is from the soundtrack or not!!
Thanks. The music is just library music. But I think it sort of captures the vibe of the original soundtrack by Jonathan Tunick.
Which church was that it 9:41? When was it demolished? Seems like a big loss. Incredible video!!
It was St. Augustine’s Church. It was closed by the Archdiocese in 2011, and demolished in 2013.
@@gluecement Thank you!!!! Again, awesome video!!!!
2:13 really epitomizes how it used to look and how it looks now.
Man, all I can say is Thank You! That was Awesome!

Rip Tito Goya Paul Newman and Ed Asner and Danny Aiello
Goya was GREAT in Marathon Man'1976'
@joericci4094 yes he was
A lot of the locations looks the same and it’s been over 40 years the movie came out. Great job with the camera work.
Awesome detective work!
Amazing how seedy the area used to be. Excellent job with this video!
Amazing !! Great job. Wish they would make movies like that again. Instead of the garbage that's produced now.
Amazing job, just subbed.
You did a great job
Great work. Music is perfect
Memories I know every one of those streets I grew up there at that time
Awesome. But where were you when I was struggling to find some of these spots? :)
I worked in the 42 when they shot the movie.
Wow, that's incredible. Any stories?
@gluecement plenty,Ed Asner was the niceties person. He bought 4 or 5pizzas and sat down and had lunch with us.Newman kept more to him self. I worked at the 42 for 6 or 8yrs.

Paul Newman is the greatest actor of all time.
Super cool. Whoever put this together very nice thx 👍🏼👍🏼

Going to check this movie out for sure. I don't know how I have not seen it. Thanks.
Superb! Thanks!

A great movie. Top 10 cop movie. Paul Newman is the man.
The Bronx is still dangerous, but they did clean it up.
Very nice, my HS buddies tell me I wouldn't even recognize Bed-Stuy. I remember we used to say, never run from an overweight cop, they will instead of giving chase.
Yep, i remember the filming. They closed my block to film.

not a great film but love you now and then
So many cars there now with out of state plates. It takes hours for me to find parking.
Excellent work. One question: what happened to that huge church beside Estella Diggs Park? I can't seem to find it online.
Thanks. Sadly, the church is gone. There's an apt building there now, as seen in the video.

This was totally uncalled for at 2:59 that Superfly Eldorado did nothing to nobody.
