What is your favorite movie chase scene (preferably pre-CGI) - car or foot?

You left out horseback.....

I don’t remember the movie title, but in one of John Wayne’s early “B” movies, there’s a chase scene (wasn’t there always?) where the camera zooms out to a panoramic shot, and the audience can see the high tension electrical wires in the background.

Also, the scene in “McLintock!” where John Wayne chases Maureen O’Hara through the town, finally catching her and administering a spanking with an ash shovel.

Blues Brothers car chase through the mall. Hands down.

The foot chase that opens Casino Royale is the best part of the movie.

If we are going to talk about horseback movie chases, none are more thrilling than The Terror Of Tiny Town (an all midget western):
