its not a classic film, but the racing sequences in "Grand Prix" especially the stuff shot at Monza and Spa are fricken genius.

In my top 10, possibly top 5 of films! Arguably a classic movie, but cant recall any classic scenes in it.

is the opening sequence its downfall therefore?

i agree with your choice good sir, the opening 15 is amazing cinematography, shocking might me more acurate. but the rest kinda limps along, fairly good ending but again in the shadow of the start.

French Connection 1 & 2 - utterly epic chase scenes in both and when they get popeye in 2 and turn him inot a junkie - the kickin off scenes are not to be forgotten...

Course Billy Friedkin did another epic chase that is v rarely mentioned but is deffo up there withthe greats - its called To Live & Die in LA .....

as for great scenes in not great films - how about Butch Cassidy & Sundance Kid - the Raindrops Keep Fallin on my head on the bike is great - tend to forget the rest....

But gotta disagree about Heat - AL PAcino SHOUTING at everyone does not a good film make - IMVHO !!!

De Niro never bettered Mean Streets and Taxi Driver...except the Deerhunter - the russian roulette scene alsmost made me walk out of the cinema -i thought id gone to see a natural history film about shooting elk !!
