Several times I've caught this scene on t.v. A man and a woman are in a slow moving bus. They are in a big city place and there are swarms of police and SWAT people blasting the hell out of it. They finally stop in front of ,what I think is, a City Government building (not sure I saw this last two years ago) The man and the woman get out of the bus, tons of cops have their guns pointed at them. One point a guy starts blabbering about something a old guy was doing behind everyone else's back, Old Guy get's gun and shoots Blabering guy. Old guy about to kill Man when Man kills Old Guy, It a little bit of hugging or somehting between the Man and the Woman and that was the end of the film.
Just a random guess but I'll go with the Billy Jack movie that comes before the Trial of Billy Jack (ugh) because I know Billy is caught in the movie before that. But I got a good feeling I'm quite wrong.
What is this movie?
If the man is Clint Eastwood, then it's The Gauntlet.
Not sure if it was Eastwood. I hadn't really heard of thought about him whenever I saw this. I'll look into the Gauntlet.
This is most certainly the Gauntlet. The only difference is that the old guy shoots Clint, Locke shoots the old guy and then she starts screaming at clint to live. He utters the line: "Nag, nag, nag."
Earlier in the movie the cops shoot a house until it falls down. You have to see the movie all the way through to appreciate it.
It has to be "The Gaunlet" I've seen that scene too many times to count.
This used to air every weekend on a local channel in the 80s and 90s. Rather than produce regular infomercials some aluminum siding company would sponsor (or buy) the whole two hour block of programming and do their pitch with a phone bank and testimonials like it was a telethon in between various action movies shown in that time slot. Finally they quit airing different movies and would just show "The Gaunlet" every time with the pretaped sales pitch parts playing over and over and the host/announcer just saying, "And now back to the movie." Originally he would name the movie each week while on camera, but later it was just "our exciting afternoon movie".
My father and I used to joke that we were going to start a write in campaign to demand they quit showing "The Gaunlet" or we would boycott the station and their sponsors since they had ruined a good movie by playing it so often that we felt compelled to avoid it.
I loved the scene where they shoot the house so many times it falls down
