No, he said: "I've been riding the trains since before you were born. I am an expert. They have something called stickers or stoppers or something like that. When there is a red light, it stops!"And the black guy says: "There's just one problem, baby!" Old man: "What's that?" Black guy: "They're all green!" The Hispanic woman with the two boys then screams "we're gonna die!!" Greatest movie about New York City in the early '70s that was ever made. The film NAILS it. |

Then Garber drones on: "In the course of a normal work week, the average TA policeman deals with such crimes as robbery, assault, murder, illness, vandalism, mishigast, abusiveness, sexual molestation, exhibitionism..." |

And my most favorite snippet from the movie...Garber: ". . . Tell them to put it on a 9-11, so their computer picks it up." Rico: "What's up, Z?" "Z": "You won't believe it." Rico: "You know me, I'll believe anything" Z: "A train's been hijacked." Rico (after a very long pause): "I don't believe it." |

With the French Connection 1 - the most quintissential NY film ever ......The grit - the humour - the "real city" In my opinion anyway. Saw it in the cinema in (of all places) - a coastal town in Wales as a student. Loved it ever since. |

The only thing he was missing was a Noo Yawk accent. Now Walter Mattheau in Pelham 1 2 3 sounded like a pure city native. Hackman sounded like was from western Pa.or somewhere else, far from NYC. |
