Bullitt (1968)
Movie
Released
The Mustang and Charger seem to acquire different personalities as San Francisco's hills throw them into the air. Carey Loftin's coordination and Bill Hickman's driving are part of the craft behind a sequence often reduced to Steve McQueen's image. Watch the suspension, corner entries and stretches without explanatory dialogue. The surrounding police procedural is cooler and slower than the chase, which makes the sudden physical release all the more effective.
