great film, they dont make em like they used to
has lots of very quotable lines, mostly from joe don bakers character
yeah Joe Don Baker was rather menacing.great film, they dont make em like they used to

another good one from that time, again with Walter Matthau is 'The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3'. One of the inspirations for Tarantino apparantly.

Love the running gag in Pelham with Matthau's very un-PC remarks about their Japanese visitors and the subtle pay-off in the final scene. Both likely to be missing from this - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1111422/

Both great films. Tarantino used the Mr White/Mr Green/etc naming convention in Reservoir Dogs as a nod to Pelham.
