I cannot lay claim to having seen every car chase in the movies
worldwide but a couple of nights ago I was lucky to catch a screening of
“Ronin”, dir: John Schlesinger …Starring Robert Di Nero.
The main sequences were shot in the very narrow streets of Nice and then a fantastic sequence which seemed to go on for ever along the main thoroughfares of Paris..
Most of the action was against the flow of traffic with crashes, narrow escapes, multiple crashes, smashes in tunnels, all done at high speed and covered amazingly well.
If you have ever driven in Paris and driven with the flow of the traffic you will realize how insane it must have been to drive at top speed against the flow.
I could only find credits for six drivers at the end of the film.
Well done to all of them.
If any one has seen a better example of high speed chases then please let me know
