Number 8 wire and all that

Take note of this, one of the great New Zealand films. This film has lost nothing with the years and the car chase in downtown Wellington City is remarkable even now. The whole downtown was closed to traffic on a sunday afternoon (something which would be absolutely impossible now) for them to accomplish their one shot at that sequence. Hilarious.

[just for the record; this was posted Sept 12 2003. I wonder how long it will be before anyone replies?]
