Not my favourite of Steve Macqueen's movies's but he is lush and so is his car. I have seen this a few times before and basically only remembered that car chase and the beautiful face of the driver. On re-watch i'm not that keen, the story is very slow in parts and a little confusing. There are some baddies, even some wearing uniforms and of course Steve is the goodie in his own bad way. A man under witness protection gets killed but was it really him? You have to pay more attention than i did.
Better Than This: The Great Escape (1963) Superb characters abound in this heroic wartime gem, The Getaway (1972) Not the best film ever but MacQueens returning crim is worth it, The French Connection (1971) Wonderful, occasionally confusing, fantastic car chase, one of my fave cop films.
