The Taking of Pelham 123

We turn the clock back this episode for a look at a vintage 70s thriller, The Taking of Pelham One Two Three. Though you might be familiar with the mediocre Travolta/Washington remake from a few years back, this original is a taut, fast paced hostage-situation potboiler that serves equally well as a time capsule of the period in which it was made, and we both thoroughly enjoyed it.
