The Bullet chase scene was the first in history to be filmed at actual speed, and not sped up in editing to make the cars appear to be going faster than they actually were.

[@erictalkington5674]

Nice! From what I've read about those cars, especially the Chargers they used, they didn't need to be sped up through editing lol. They were mostly stock, other than suspension and they were so quick, the driver had to keep letting off the gas to allow the heavily modified Mustangs to keep up so he didn't blow them away!

@@pip393 I guess you missed the whole premise of a prison film with the inmates transported to Devils island. A place where no one escapes.

As for Rotten Tomatoes rating it isn't worth jack but each to their own because I found The Gateway tedious.

@@jsshuntr1257I was a Nationally Licensed club racing driver, first for a few years on the ice (3wins, 2, seconds, 1 third, 1 DNF taken out while leading), and then eighteen years in formula cars (F3/FC, FF, and had a Barber SAAB pro car test. I would have been placed fifth on the grid at the previous race at Lime Rock)) before running out of mad money. Along the way I met hundreds of racing drivers, some famous (Derek Bell, Skip Barber) and some not. I went to SCCA drivers school with Newman and subsequently, when we bumped into each other at Lime Rock, had a nodding acquaintanceship. Newman took his racing career seriously and very soon became an outstanding pro driver well into his seventies! McQueen was naturally gifted but didn't pursue racing seriously although he did much of the driving in Le Mans himself during closed sessions separate from the actual race. Grand Prix was a soap opera when not on track and even then was not very realistic. Le Mans, in my view portrayed the sport, the drivers and the feel of a race paddock more realistically. Garner also did some racing, mostly in small bore cars like MGBs. He was only an active driver for a couple of years though. I took a photo of him and a driver he was sponsoring that was runner up for the back cover photo of Sports Car Graphic. It was a lot of expensive fun but I got to meet some interesting people. -dave

For the critics attempting to defend Steve McQueen's behavior, understand that no one is downgrading his talent as an actor. It's his personality that's being discussed here. Fact is, he was very insecure, even jealous of handsome stars like Paul Newman. McQueen knew he wasn't as good looking as other leading men, and that bothered him a lot. That's something he couldn't handle. As far as his upbringing, zillions of others have it just as bad and even worse... yet they didn't let they're past dictate their personality. Bottom line is Steve McQueen was a fantastic actor who had major insecurities-period.

That is purely your own perception George. McQueen was good looking and didn't suffer from insecurities. He had a violent side which is different.

Acting at it finest....or maybe just that this is what you get when you're too lazy to write a narration and get a dumb AI ChatGPT to do it for you.

McQueen the Legend King!

[@jackkunkel]

Everyone who worked with him seemed to agree that McQueen was a pr--k. in any case, Steve McQueen the actor had nothing to do with the movie Fastbender. That was a different Steve McQueen.

Exactly. How did that get into this prog?

I have great respect for Robert Redford, he was interviewed once by a British newspaper and when the interviewer said smile for a photo mr Redford said I do not smile to order well done Robert

Roger Moore was 53 years old when Steve McQueen passed away on November 7th 1980

A tad rebellious, through McQueen, we see James Dean again.

I do wonder if this character portrayal on Steve McQueen is truth, I heard a much different portrayal years ago, knowing Hollywood as I do never know if they say truth or just another story for credits

[@michaelwittmann2644]

Actor, Steve McQueen, was also known as Steve the Queen due to his alledged dalliance with those that swung the other way. I wonder if the hit films Steve McQueen starred in would have been equally, if not more sucessful, if the starring roll was awarded to a different actor. I very much doubt the iconic film, Butch Cassidy and The Sundance Kid, would have been so iconic if Steve McQueen had taken Robert Redford's place. Regardless, I still very much enjoy watching Steve McQueen Classics; The Great Escape, The Magnificent Seven, The Cincinnati Kid, The Thomas Crown Affair, Bullitt, The Getaway, Papillon, and Tom Horn. Nontheless, cinema would have been a poorer place without Steve McQueen.

Fun Fact: McQueen was invited to SHARON TATE's HOUSE (luckily a BEAUTY caught his eye, at the bar thus avoiding the Tate Murders that infamous night). -San Francisco fan girl

McQueen apologized to Brynner in his later years for his behavior in Magnificent 7. He was also the one who encouraged Charles Buchinsky to change his name. As they were driving together down Hollywood Blvd, they passed Bronson St., and that’s all she wrote. Bronson and McQueen worked together on 3 movies. I think a lot of the characterization of McQueen in this video, and the many true stories of his interactions with other famous actors, is fair to a point but a little bit overblown and sensationalized, especially the “hated” in the title here. Many of these guys remained friends with Steve. Listen to LeVar Burton’s commentary on working with McQueen in the Hunter. Everyone wanted to be in his inner circle. McQueen was well loved by fans and many in the industry . He was very charitable without boasting and became a Christian in his later life.

Not a fan of hit pieces, especially those about people who have died and can’t defend themselves.👎🏼

I think if Steve McQueen had beaten the Cancer in 1980 and lived you could only imagine the bigger and better achievements he would have gone on too he died way too young at 50 i taught lately about Steve Mcqueen he would have been very good in a James Bond movie co-starring with Roger Moore not playing the villain instead Steve McQueen would have been being his Amercian ally maybe in Roger Moore final outing as 007 in 1985's A View to a Kill. Roger Moore and Steve McQueen where big stars at the same time in the 60's so if Steve McQueen had lived it's very possible him and Roger Moore would have eventually crossed paths on screen who knows no doubt these two great are in heaven with our Lord Kind Regards take care God Bless John Tipperary Town Ireland

[@derekallen3979]

"not playing the villain instead Steve McQueen would have been being his Amercian ally maybe in Roger Moore final outing as 007 i" How can you possibly write when most of this video is about how he always wanted to be the lead. He couldn't possibly be in a Bond film without being Bond.

[@Bamruff62]

LOL .. Robert Redford was not in the movie " Towering Inferno". It was Paul Newman and it was Newman and McQueen that competed with each other...

[@artemusp.folgelmeyer4821]

So, in the proverbial "nut shell", McQueen was a super star but a jerk on the set. Got it, and not surprised, as evidently a lot of these celebs are.

[@paulsheehan5010]

I was in a movie with Paul Newman.

[@Ycv1981aproudhistory]

The king of cool , proper Hollywood as was Paul Newman 👌

[@kingsman8475]

Mc Queen could have played Star Trek's Gary Seven on the silver screen. He could also have played Anakin Skywalker in the "Return of the Jedi." He was taken too soon.

[@lav25og83]

The pictures of him in the beginning with him in a hatch looks like a Marine LVT-4 driver's hatch

[@briang.7206]

McQueen and Newman you could actually see the tension on screen between them.

[@paulhomsy2751]

Paul Newman was not a "bigger name" in Hollywood than Steve McQueen. They both had big names but McQueen had a cool factor that no other actor showed before or after him. Both were great actors but for McQueen to refuse to take second billing in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid was appropriate. Meanwhile Robert Redford shared equal billing with Newman. I'm not too sure your research is accurate on this particular topic. The motorcycle scene in The Great Escape was excellent. The jump over the barbed wire fence into the "no man's land area" was done by Bud Ekins who was a frequent rider with McQueen in Jawbone Cyn outside the town of Mojave. McQueen was an extremely good rider but Ekins who was a movie stuntman was known to be outstanding in motorcycle races. The producers of the movie didn't want McQueen to make the stunt over the barbed wire fence.

I really enjoy Steve McQueen as Josh Randal that Western Josh Randal Bounty Hunter 😊

[@astragreen]

Nowhere does Newman say ‘he utterly hated’ McQueen, more rotten click bait from this expert in crap!.

[@SuperBeachbum74]

No way Newman was a bigger star than McQueen ? Maybe with critics Newman was more popular , but with fans it was McQueen hands down, the king of cool !

[@lancewilson7038]

There is no indication that I have ever heard that Steve McQueen and Robert Redford ever met each other.
