@@revokdaryl1 I doubt that many people returned it. _Driver_ was a commercial success. But the confusion factor for what you're supposed to do is legendary. The sad part is on the main menu under training, there is a practice demo with a replay showing you EXACTLY what you are supposed to do in order to pass.

@@WhiteJarrah My mistake. Actually, the rumour I heard was that many people returned the game after not being able to beat the final mission "The President's Run".
Such an awesome movie, I'd never heard of it until today, bought it at a local charity shop for $2 mainly because it starred Bruce Dern and Ryan O'Neal. Such a great surprise when a random purchase turns out to be pure gold xD
I have found a few movies that way too. I love this scene, the way he methodically destroys every surface of the car. The car/truck chase at the end is an amazing sequence too.
Correct! You know, that crashing sound was used in NUMEROUS car chases of the 70s and 80s! It's usually described as the "Wilhelm scream for cars". However, these are ALL the titles I've actually found it in: 1. Vanishing Point (1971) 2. M*A*S*H (1972-1983) 3. The Poseidon Adventure (1972) 4. The Last American Hero (1973) 5. The Seven-Ups (1973) 6. 99 and 44/100% Dead (1974)(heard in trailer at least) 7. The Towering Inferno (1974) 8. Race With The Devil (1975) 9. The French Connection II (1975) 10. The Kansas City Massacre (1975) 11. Cannonball (1976) 12. Gator (1976) 13. Silver Streak (1976) 14. Smokey & the Bandit (1977)(heard in trailer but NOT the final film) 15. The Driver (1978) 16.

Return on the Black Thrasher: The Movie (2009)(made by me) Of these, only 15 are 20th Century Fox productions, so it's a good bet that those guys are responsible for creating it. Again, there's bound to be more titles, but these are ALL I've found it in.
after watching the movie a couple of times, i think i figured this scene out he was testing them. at 3:50 when glasses agrees to make a deal, despite the driver showing signs of madness while driving, o'neals' character now knows for a fact that he is being set up. in any other case, the shooters wouldn't have hired an insane driver.
Thanks, because I couldn't figure out 1) what point he is making by destroying the car and 2) why they were just sitting there, acting helpless, like they couldn't stop him from doing this. Side note: back then, it was probably kind of sad to see the car destroyed for the movie, but today, it is REALLY sad to see it destroyed. LOL!
the reason he destroyed the car had nothing to do with showing off his abilities. as he put it he did work for "shooters" aka guys who do cowboy scores which those guys did, he knew he was set up when his contact told him they paid 500 just to get to him. the only reason he wrecked the car was just to make a point.

They used that 1975 Mercedes 250S because it was built like a tank, get bashed hard and still peel out. You should consider it an honor to German engineering.
The sheer skill it would take to drive that quickly through the garage without wrecking, then suddently damaging every foot of that car against concrete pillars that quickly while keeping the car perfectly drivable.
There is a 131min cut of this film which was, shown during the 70s and then cut to this theaterical realise. God I really want thst cut to surface. This is without a doubt one of my fav movies and oen of trh best ever made. It's a sublime. Bring back 131 min cut please.
@@for2utubeNot fast, but sturdy and safe. Just what they needed. For speed they had to choose that type of car with a larger engine. Personally, I have driven the smaller model 200D as a taxi for numerous years and was astonished over their durability over and over again - including some big accidents that colleagues had (in most cases, caused by themselves by racing like hell 😅 )
Perfect casting imho - Steve McQueen (cool as he was...) has always been lauded for his cool persona in his movie roles, but Ryan O' Neal here seems both extremely laidback and uptight at the same time...a wonderful minimalist performance in a wonderful minimalist movie.

the reason he destroyed the car had nothing to do with showing off his abilities. as he put it he did work for "shooters" aka guys who do cowboy scores which those guys did, he knew he was set up when his contact told him they paid 500 just to get to him. the only reason he wrecked the car was just to make a point.
They paid her an extra 300 dollars.
what point? they should charge him for the car
the lady who was paid .........$300 was Nancy's mum in the first elm Street movie 😄👍

What a scene.This is brilliant.
Not a single smartphone in sight. *Just people having fun*
I'm not into Mercedes', even though I'm German, but this was a very fine car and it literally hurts watching this.
They used that 1975 Mercedes 250S because it was built like a tank, get bashed hard and still peel out. You should consider it an honor to German engineering.
It is but a scratch. I’m sure it will buff out.
Just to think 21 years later, you would be doing the exact same thing....but for your own test proving that you are right in being the Wheelman...
driver 1 lol

Exactly!!
He bashed the radiator til it leaked. Not drivable for long.
@@Hjerte_Verke Lol saw that. Maybe we can chalk that up to filmmakers error because the driver would never let that happen!

I like to think the first one was a mistake, he then hit it many times to cover it up.

Yeah, that was a cute touch! Also seems a bit scared at times.
"Awwwww, you wrecked da car Mannnnnnn.............." :)
Great scene. The guy in the passenger seat grinning like a lunatic and absolutely loving it.
How Jeremy Clarkson learned to drive

He mentioned this scene in his 2005 DVD
If he failed, they would have said “Maybe I’ll give you a call if I need a ride to the grocery store”
