Backdraft (6/11) Movie CLIP - Catching the Arsonist (1991) HD

[@pab1381]

This is my childhood friends house. Spent so many days here. It’s in Hinsdale, Illinois. We were too young when they filmed here but knowing DeNiro was in their house was amazing lol.

[@railroadmillion681]

That pretty cool

[@tinakane4451]

Saw this movie for the first time in los angeles in 1994, went to universal studios the next day an saw the backdraft movie experience.

[@PostalWorker14]

This was great firefighter movie

[@ericflynn4247]

Backdraft is one of my favorite childhood movies like when I was 5 or something.

[@rymichaeldudeguy65]

@@ridetheformula lol wtf? Dude can’t have just watched the movie as a kid and enjoyed it or want to be a firefighter? Your childhood sounds lame as hell.

[@user-FLChizel]

“Hey kid I think I have a little problem here!” 😂

[@CaptainPirateMonkey]

I love how he's like. "Meh just got stabbed through the shoulder. Had worse."

[@RealityTrailers]

It's called shock, and if you're still conscious during such impalement you'd probably act like him as well.

[@craigwilson3532]

@@RealityTrailersyea n not to mention before that he had his head slammed against something. Wasn't his night

[@vb8428]

Also he had been burnt almost all over his body

[@cagneybillingsley2165]

proof he's a really bad guy. he would let his friend's son die.

[@kerg6223]

"oh would you look at that. I've been impaled."

[@sha11235]

Yeah, he's got a little problem all right.

[@PostalWorker14]

Funny line

[@rhey81]

So axe was also willing to kill two firemen to prove his point? Doesn't scene kinda counter it?? I mean I get this scene it for drama but for Adcox's motives, you'd think he'd pull those out of the house and then run.. Otherwise he's killing just as many fireman in that scene as Swazaks task force budget cuts did..

[@liamweaver2944]

I guess he saw Brian and Rimgale as almost like “traitors” to the Fire Department due to them working for Swayzak.

[@JLovesCinema_]

Imagine watching this film in IMAX! 😮

[@SantiagoRevecoLepeReborn]

There was that lightsaber sound at a +12 pitch, from a sparking plug.

I know, right?

Can someone pls help?i remember as a wee kid a movie about firefighters,i remember one scene where the firefighters are pinned down and the flames turn into a snake...or cobra...

[@maddogmcgruder5435]

@Lucy thx i guess

[@Trulsrohkig]

That looks like the house in Haunting of Hill House

I like that the height n voice match Scott Glen...they didn't cheat the audience

[@joymechell277]

Nothing can compare to this film I really thought Backdraft 2 would have the same thrill but it literally was so boring . I don’t even know how they figured that that would be able to go after the first one

[@user-ve5ln5le9y]

I thought Ladder 49 was a predictable and pale imitator to this. Pls I can’t stand John Travolta

[@zackarysullivan9019]

I either didn’t know or forgot they made a Backdraft 2

[@JDoe-gf5oz]

@@zackarysullivan9019 direct-to-redbox a couple years ago. I think William Baldwin's in it.

​@JDoe-gf5oz oh he was in it.

That left a scar

Swayzak has a similar personality to Ed Vrdolyak.

Hay yea kid I got little problem here. Dude all casual he got stabbed by a fence.

This was a true story rimgale discoverd an arson scandal while being a fire investigator so he focused on bringing swayzak down for being the head of the whole ordeal which reconstructed our city council

[@amydamjanovic9183]

I guess nobody locks their doors in Chicago.

[@dnasty312]

Break in

[@toddsmitts]

That's almost certainly NOT Scott Glenn, but rather a stunt guy. It doesn't look or sound like him, and most people wouldn't bother bringing in the actor for a fight scene like this, when a stunt performer could do a better job.

[@rhey81]

Not to mention its a job.. Most actors don't do their own stunts because it takes a job away from someone else if they did em themselves..

[@toddsmitts]

@@rhey81 Although Scott Glenn DID do some actual stunts later in the film (like being set on fire) that warranted a stunt credit (same with William Baldwin and Kurt Russell).

[@user-ve5ln5le9y]

Stuntmen and women don’t get enough credit. Witness the incredible stunt work in The Towering Inferno specifically the fire in Dan Bigelow’s office. That scene horrified me as a kid but as an adult I’m like ‘goddamn that is badass’

[@vb8428]

​@@rhey81 Also because it would shut down the whole production for long if they got injured. Stuntmen are more expendable I guess.

Where's the beautiful Goldie Hawn?

[@user-ve5ln5le9y]

Not in this movie.

[@amydamjanovic9183]

Typical over-the-top-everyone-goes-flying scene.

[@user-ve5ln5le9y]

A lot of this movie is over the top (frustratingly because if they toned it down a bit it could be so much better) but the truth is it’s pretty scary and thrilling this scene). It’s not an auteur flick but then it’s also way better than a stupid Michael Bay film.
