Bullitt

British director Peter Yates made his Hollywood debut with this riveting thriller. A tough cop's determination to find the killer of a witness puts him under pressure from his superiors and an ambitious politician while he's running out of time. Yates created masterfully a tension packed thriller with perhaps the best car chase sequence in the history of cinema. Steve McQueen stars in a career defining performance that defines cool. Robert Vaughn is excellent as the DA who puts heat on McQueen's Bullitt. YRCinema's coverage of films on DVD.
