  • David Shire's unused but dramatic cue for the ransom delivery as it would have scored the scene.

    When the police car with the money was going up Broad Street I was in a class at Pace University and we were watching the filming out the window of our classroom. They did a bunch of takes about every 15 minutes or so.

    Fantastic movie. As a New Yorker I really appreciate to the run through the streets. I am familiar with most of those streets and the run from downtown to midtown is fairly accurate.
    Right down to the wreck at bleaker street. Many I love it when a movie stays accurate to it's depicted location.
    Same with the subways as the train was in motion. They just don't do that anymore. Getting permission to film stuff like this in NY subways is probably next to impossible now.

      It's that cynical sense of humor sprinkled frequently throughout the film. I like how uncertainty over whether the plainclothes cop among the hostages is a male or female resurfaces a few times until Garber later offers the injured long-haired officer, "We'll have an ambulance along in a jiffy, miss."

      Astor Place, actually. Note that the newsstand was likely built specifically to be demolished in the crash and also to conceal the stunt ramp that causes the car to flip. Also note the crowd standing on the sidewalk to watch the stunt being performed.

      So do I! The NYPD introduced that updated shade of blue to their motor pool less than a year before this production filmed, replacing a drab color scheme that looked like something from 1940. They applied the same color to all the wooden police barricades that were previously gray. In addition to the subway entrances 0:00, phone booths, city buses and subway cars, NYC wore a lot of blue in the 1970s.

    Quite the reverse of a film like "speed" where all moving fast but never believe at the script.

    Love how Matthau seems to say "woik" instead of "work" and "hoid" instead of "heard." Really pushing that NYC accent. Set must've smelled like a mix of pastrami, hot dogs from a Sabrett's cart and knishes / cannoli.

      I assumed the editor felt the bold, brassy score competed too strongly with the loud sound FX of the racing police motorcade and the vital bits of dialogue between command center and the hijacked train.

      @@DC322 The filmmakers used the old US Custom House (USCH) building at Bowling Green as a stand-in for the Federal Reserve. The police car picks up the money in the courtyard of the USCH, drives up the ramp and hangs a left, heading east on Bridge Street. When this movie was filmed, the building was likely vacant because US Customs had just relocated to their new offices in the new World Trade Center around 1973. I work at the USCH building and it gets used a lot by TV and film crews. Spike Lee's "Inside Man" is another good heist movie that used this building for some scenes.
