Car chases: what about Italy?
The Murdoch Press published a story called ‘The 20 Greatest Car Chases in Movie History’. Yet the Mauricio Merli starrers of the 1970s were all omitted, which I thought was an oversight given that French film Taxi made it. The majority of the list was made up of Anglo–American fare (though I do agree with the nods given to Ronin and Bullitt). Some could be beaten by episodes of Cobra 11.
So here are a few from the late Mr Merli on the big screen in an attempt to redress the balance. Please note there is violence in these clips. And the villains drive BMWs; unsurprisingly, the hero always drives Italian.
