Chicago "L"

If this image brings to your mind’s ear a powerful, percussive score by James Newton Howard…

If it brings to mind an image of Harrison Ford clapping a handcuff on the bad guy’s (real) hand and hooking
the other side to a pole, smashing the bad guy’s head against the door and telling him, “You missed your stop”…

Well, you are my kinda movie lover ;-)

    this one's beautiful!! makes me feel homesick for chicago right away, the steely rattle that accompanies the trains, the great "urban canyons" it passes and all those strangely comforting nocturnal sounds – including police sirens ; )) – so typical of a great big metropolis. "the fugitive" does come to mind, but since i'm more familiar with the city by day, it's "ferris bueller's day off" that's dear to my heart, and did you know that a scene in the famous "north by northwest" was actually filmed at lasalle street station?! greetings, sabine. p.s.: love the steely shine and reckless "bloody" lights hinting a little bit at the city's "anonymous infamy" – it's capone territory after all– ; ))
