Episode 19 - The Taking of Pelham 123

The two films under review today - one from 1974 directed by Joseph Sargent, the other from 2009 and directed by Tony Scott - have something in common, beyond them sharing a plot and title. Both, in very distinct ways, act as monuments to the cinematic styles of the period they come from. Sargent's film is grimy and unglamorous, with an unmistakably '70s score. Scott's film is full of rolling cars, hyperactive editing and John Travolta.

Which one will come out on top and can Tony Scott enter the rarefied ranks of the Remazing?
