Director: Peter Yates
Cast: Steve McQueen, Robert Vaughn, Jacqueline Bisset, James Hagan, Vic Tayback, Georg Stanford Brown
In his signature role Steve McQueen plays a tough San Francisco detective who gets pulled into a web of intrigue when he's ordered to protect an important witness. This thriller is most famous for its car chase, which is pretty much all it has to offer. And if it seemed groundbreaking at the time, it doesn't seem like much now. Oscar winner for best editing. Adapted from Robert L. Fish's novel "Mute Witness".
