I continue my Dirty Old New York video essay series with Dirty Old New York aka Fun City, Part I and Part II. Dirty Old New York Subway can be seen here.
All shots are connected by at least one of the following: location, film, character, actor, signage, recurring object, or recurring motif. Try and see how many of these connections you can spot and how many films you can identify. This is a fluid piece and probably will be revised and / or supplemented with additional footage. I'm going to wrap this up with a forthcoming Part III.
I've tried to source everything from 16x9 DVDs, but have had to compromise this standard in some cases.

beautiful. hearing "subway theme" from the wild style soundtrack made me smile
Thanks, Diallo! That is a great tune, indeed, "Subway Theme."
Great idea. I hope you'll publish a concordance listing the movies you drew from -- there are a few in there where I was "wow! I'd like to see that" but not actually knowing what it was!
Anonymous,
Thanks for viewing and for your feedback! I think when all is said and done I will publish that list. Which clips caught your eye?

Thank you, Her,Suzanne76!...I just hope that people actually watch Part II now.
