Mustang Mach 1/movie car


Recommended Posts

Since there are so many Mustang fans and movie car fans as well, how about a neat mix of the two?

I snagged a dvd copy of 'Point Break' last night at Wally's, $7.50, Keanu Reaves first starring role as he was emerging from his 'Oh, wow, man...' stage of his early career.

His 'Johnny Utah' character in the movie uses a '70 Mustang Mach 1, in light grey primer... only thing that stands out is the primer and the missing front bumper, but it looks better than most movie cars and fits the role quite well.

Chase sequences - especially the foot chase filmed using handheld cameras, with Catherine Bigelow's direction, are amazing, and the movie was the first to use many of the currently accepted methods for 'heavy' stuntwork, such as those used in the skydiving and underwater footage.

All in all, still a favorite.
