Authentic non-CGI car chases-
Bullit, French Connection, The Seven Ups.
car chase: if it’s gotta be a car, then bullit, if not then ben hur
gun fight: the climactic fight in ‘support your local sherriff’
fist fight: escape from new york
Gun Fight-
Bank Robbery scene in the movie, “HEAT”.
I’m a fan of multi-modal chases, so “The French Connection” where Gene Hackman has to chase the guy on the train is one of the best of all time, and of course “The Blues Brothers”.
But still, no car chase scene can top Popeye Doyle in a brown 71 LeMans!
