Love this film..YES it's a made-for-TV flick. And no it wasn't actually filmed in New York, it was Pittsburgh standing in for NYC (other than the establishing skyline shots)
I didn't know this existed till just now. I was 10yo when this came out . This is a gem find . Don't care for the "who's the boss" Tony Danza bc that's all I see. He makes it feel like a lifetime movie
I originally watched this for Tony danza , Dan Laura ( wonder years ) had no idea that Ted Levine ( looking Fine !!!!) monk , joyride , heat was in this movie til last yr .
Still have the original TV broadcast on VHS tape under it's original title "Dead and Alive: The Race For Gus Farace"...It's been repackaged & re-released under several different titles
Having fun and a trip down memory lane watching all 12 of In the Line of Duty movies on UA-cam that were originally aired on NBC between 1988 & 1997. Most of them appear to have had different titles for the DVD releases.
Heartbreaking...knew him in our early teens .Always smiling, laughing and joking. Such an outgoing personality. Every girl in school had a crush on him. 😢❤ RIP Gus Prayers and blessings sent to Hatcher family, even though years later
back when SLJ hadn't quite yet built up the clout to survive through an entire movie: He was killed in this one, killed in Jungle Fever, killed in Goodfellas
Had no idea ted Levine ( stotlemeyer) was in this movie .i originally watched for tony danza being a bad boy , nicholas turturro ( john turturro brother ) .
I can't believe this movie was this good and I'd never seen it. I loved this movie but it took me on an emotional rollercoaster because I love Tony Danza so much but then he went and killed Samuel L. Jackson and made me hate him.
"New York, New York It's My Kind of Town" is about New York's landscape. Every place is mentioned, and now the comments...: 53:36 Bobby had a heart. And this Tony Danza character Gus, the one Danza plays, is a doofus. He's a funny character even when juxtaposed against the violent, severe nature of the risk involved and deadly outcomes. At some point, just before the cuffing of Aby, there's this crazy-sounding music 56:08 that fits more for a cartoon than a severe police drama. I couldn't help but see Gus and nothing other than the guy in a comedy TV series played by Tony Danza as himself. Gus the Icon. By the way, I admire the guy. The best part of the movie for me was when the Assassins arrived; they were similar in height and dressed to kill. Hahaha.A lot of interesting characters. There is a Vinnie in the movie. In mob films, always there's a "Vinnie." Gus is putting the squeeze on him. I take a light-hearted approach because it seems routine about how bad things happen to good people, even if he kills someone. Such is life in our country, after all. Gus, born "Italian," has a lust for life, limited cash, and opportunity, so things go wrong. Drum roll, please.
I GUESS EVERYONE MISTED THE FACT,THE REWARD WAS OVER THE THOUSANDS FOR THE KILLER OF THE AGENT,REGULAR CITIZENS,NILL UNLESS THE FAMILY PUTS THE REWARD ON THE THOUSANDS, CITIZENS LIFES DON'T MATTER
I am sure this is an older film, but I am somewhat surprised that with all our technology, law enforcement under cover agents were wearing a wire even in a film.
Damn... I dont know was this one a good or not. Here in Finland it was 06.30 (i think in america they use AM in the end of it) - and sure, i fell asleep because first i fed my cats and they piled up on my chest so the "purrrrring"- sound works like a sleeping pill. Plus my Maine Coon weights 40lb. so yes, two cats can pile up on a 250lb 6'3" guy and now i'm flipping a coin should i watch this one again or what.
Not a waste of time. Good story, good acting. A few impossibilities about who and where there are, but still good. Tiny was tarnished by taxi, even if it was a good show, it gave hima stigma. He's a great actor that got screwed. I would have never expected one of the bigger stars to be killed first. Lol. But I guess he wasn't big then.
mid late 70s I we fully involved with the filming editing of the production the cast were dubious about starring in making a movie but within a few months they nailed it excellent film late 80s after re watching this film on TV or VHS a bunch of us felt inspired it triggered another GTA development period likely cardboard models over world mid 00s getting drunk laughing over snatch doug Im coming to london and havvy pull your socks up
Absolutely brilliant, pity movies aint like that anymore. Thank You
😊😊😊😊
Thats was piss poor movie.🤮🤮🤮
old but gold
Really enjoyed this one. Thanks for the download.
I remember when this actually happened in real life. This was a good movie!
Good actors in this one! I love true crime stories!
Excellent thankyou!
Frank Vincent has appeared in a squillion films with Mob-related plots
⚖️ ALMOST AS IF THAT IS HIS JOB
⚖️ HE IS GOOD AT IT RIGHT?
@@tryagain4469 Dennis Farina has been in a few, too
@@Baskerville22 ⚖️YES INDEED

Thanking you !

Awesome movie
Fantastic movie, great music

Tony Danza always does his best … and he plays some heavy characters 👏👏👏💯
Wow can't believe I had never seen this one before.
I do remember the real crime being in the News back then...
It's all classic,
It was a good movie to watch so thanks for sharing 👌👍👍👍
I didn't realize Danza was that 💪💯
Me either - he looks hot !
He was FIONE!
I think he use to be a Golden Gloves Boxer before becoming an actor and now he's a Math Teacher I do believe. I still enjoy watching Who's the Boss.
The real Gus was a body builder, 6’4 260 pounds, so Tony had to bulk up for the role
EXCELLENT!
THANK YOU.
Great movie thank you.. Good Italian actors.. ❤ It 👍🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟👏👏👏👏👏🎥This was simple but a classic one!!
Top movie, thanks

I Love that show Judith Light and her daughter were so Fire ... Tony was cool!
U ever seen him in Taxi?
I originally watched this for Tony danza , Dan Laura ( wonder years ) had no idea that Ted Levine ( looking Fine !!!!) monk , joyride , heat was in this movie til last yr .
Tony Danza was outstanding as a dramatic actor in this film. Really enjoyed it when it was on tv back in the day. Thanks for uploading it here.
Plus, Tony Danza has all those Oscars.
Great movie 🍿🎥🤍💯
Good Movie, Thank You.
I'm sure someone else covered this but how cool is SLJ in this? Young looking man!
⚖️ S L J ALL THE WAY
Never saw this movie, watching now excellent acting.
Interesting movie..the mob really don't mess about 😮😮😮😅😅
Shot in Pittsburgh in Highland park. I was the news camera guy in white pants. 😎
the zoo?
@@davidreitter4457 Near the zoo. Near a park.
I was Samuel L Jackson’s cell phone, good times and a nice guy, he had a very gentle touch on the buttons.
@@renceworld :)
@@renceworld I don’t remember you
This one was really good. Can’t beat real true crime movies!
The funniest line was when he’s probably half way to Sicily by now 😂
Little sicily.... across Brooklyn 🤭🤭🤭🤭
always drop everything when Tony Danza movie is around😊, I have to check it out..
Great movie thanks for the upload...
Thanks for watching
A great movie,depicting the fate of law enforcement officers gunned down.Thank you for a great movie.
😂Albie says “Watch the car sheezze “ LOL
Great film, thanks!🥳
Glad you enjoyed it!
"ego personalities, always the worst kind of a friend". (::) -too bad Samuel was just used as a crowd teaser-
It's a mafia movie, black people are not in the mafia, I remember Samuel l Jackson in goodfellas

The laters action movie,, but also best,, Like 👍👍
What the feck is the laters?
Same call the old movie..Tq
Heartbreaking...knew him in our early teens .Always smiling, laughing and joking. Such an outgoing personality. Every girl in school had a crush on him. 😢❤ RIP Gus
Prayers and blessings sent to Hatcher family, even though years later
He was a scumbag who killed people, maybe that's cool to you new Yorkers but to us regular folj murder is bad
Awesome movie AMAZING ACTORS ESPECIALLY TONY DANZA ...
I thought it was a Samuel Jackson movie. Like honey trapping it was celeb hooking. But the movie was good.
Tony Danza, and Frank Vincent are even bigger celebrities. Samuel Jackson is a nobody compared to them, to me.
You have GOT to be sh**ting me ! THANK you ! Love this series...
Sh*tting is spelled with only one * and double tt. I sh*t you not! 🤣
@@forestdweller5581 😂😂 Sh*t ...indeed...my bad !
It's a good one
Fast pace movie with preditible end. A good flick.
The opening music says made for TV movie.
it is
That it does.
There all types of great made for tv movies

Great movie!
Thank you!!
TD and SLJ. ❤
back when SLJ hadn't quite yet built up the clout to survive through an entire movie: He was killed in this one, killed in Jungle Fever, killed in Goodfellas
It Was Decent
I miss the 80s 90s
Thank u
What a great movie. The cop boss was in silence of the lambs. Had no idea how good of an actor he is.
pre Leland stottlemeyer.he's gorgeous 🤩
Kept my interest and most films I can't watch past the first few minutes.
Brilliant film 🎥👍
Thank you for watching!
Gr8 to see Chachi from Happy days in the role of Danny. One of Danza's early roles. ty 4 movi.
Awesome movie❤
definite 10
This was hands down the best movie in the in the line of duty series
We are so glad you enjoyed it!

I remember as a kid and seeing this premiere TV
I remember this it's crazy because year's later I ended up in prison with one of the guys that killed guss😮
They say life imitates art 🎨
Chi-mo?
Who is guss?
Yup
Who gives a fuck
Not "Who's the Boss" murdering sam jack in a drive by 😩🤦🏾♀️✌🏽

It puts the lotion on the skin or it gets the hose again
Great story convict, my hemorrhoids bleed for you.
Leland stottlemeyer character
A great film, Shame about the 40 adverts.
Don't have an ad blocker? 'bout time to get one - they're free. Only way to bother with YT.
@@jessstone7486 I Paid £15 a month for total av adblocker but youtube dont allow them to block videos 2 months ago. its the same with Faceachebook.
A 70s movie in the 90s. Imagine that
70's film?
@@TheVidkid67 : Has that vibe
@robertwitherington671 1991 it says in yhe description
@@jeffcampbell2710 : talking style
@rogerscottcathey I actually agree with a 70s vibe. But you stated 89. I thought you were stating the release date.
I was in the States around this time can't for the life of me remember this.
What am I watching, this is more comical than thriller 😅
it was made for prime-time TV, after Goodfellas but before the Sopranos
It's a true story
I remember when I was in the news
So many fkn ads
The guy leading the investigation was the psycho in silence of the lambs
he's portraying a Leland stottlemeyer esque character.
Movie 🎥 dragged 🤜🏼🤛🏼☮️
Captain Leland Stottlemeyer from "Monk". 🚓🚨👌
and extremely ❤️🔥
Wow Ted Levine plays a top cop in this film, but plays a serial killer in silence of the lambs lol
it's called acting Duh .this character is Leland stottlemeyer esque
@@robertaphelps Oh really, your so inteligent, i dint k'now that, thanks for yourhelps
@@gaz1tinsley your whole comment gave me a headache .grammarly is a great app .
Been a good film enjoy peeps 😀

I watch this just to hear the piano.
Yes, the soundtrack is excellent.
Any movie jackson is in is good

If there's a piano, I'm out. The players always bang the keys.
A piano is powerful. No need to use the keys like a sledgehammer.
jerry chilli's daughter reaally looked like the actress playing her, even tho in the movie its "joe zanni"s" sister
Damn... I dont know was this one a good or not. Here in Finland it was 06.30 (i think in america they use AM in the end of it) - and sure, i fell asleep because first i fed my cats and they piled up on my chest so the "purrrrring"- sound works like a sleeping pill. Plus my Maine Coon weights 40lb. so yes, two cats can pile up on a 250lb 6'3" guy and now i'm flipping a coin should i watch this one again or what.
This why they say all black men die first in the movie . Name another movie he died in the beginning
Ya dam good
Not a waste of time. Good story, good acting. A few impossibilities about who and where there are, but still good. Tiny was tarnished by taxi, even if it was a good show, it gave hima stigma. He's a great actor that got screwed. I would have never expected one of the bigger stars to be killed first. Lol. But I guess he wasn't big then.
Yep, I remember. He got it right in front of my cousins house on 81st street
What was your reaction to the whole situation?
Wow Tony Danza plays a great bad guy. That's a huge stretch from his other roles. And Mikey Vio looks 100% Irosh. Lol
NYC and California is where the police have a hard time the rest of the states have it alot easier!!!
I live in the Catskills! The mob dumping ground!
Mobs? Do they have their little fingers up in the air?
Can't hear it.
