Viewing Notes

We started out movie night with this 1967 British heist film with Stanley Baker as the criminal orchestrator of a meticulously planned train robbery. The crazy but short high speed car chase feels like a progenitor to more famous car chases that came later. Kudos for doing that at high velocity through the streets of London!
