Summary of Gone in 60 Seconds
Maindrian Pace (H.B. Halicki) is a master car thief who heads an elaborate organization of professionals. Using an insurance investigation company as a front Pace and his associates buy junked cars from accident scenes steal new autos of the same model and color then switch the serial numbers for resale. It's a lucrative business but when some shady characters offer them 400000 dollars to deliver 50 specific luxury vehicles the challenge is too much to pass up. The burglars put on disguises and waste no time in lifting limousines official racecars and Rolls-Royces (even stopping by a television studio to steal actor Lyle Waggoner's convertible). When Pace discovers that a recently stolen Cadillac has a million dollars worth of heroin in the trunk he destroys the car and the drugs which infuriates his adversarial partner Eugene (Jerry Daugirda). Just as Pace is stealing a bright yellow Mustang (code-named Eleanor) the Los Angeles police department gives chase tipped off by Eugene's anonymous call. This leads to the meat of the film a wild 40-minute pursuit which takes Pace and the police through five cities and leads to the destruction of 93 cars. Gone in 60 Seconds was a big hit for first time director/writer/producer/star H.B. Halicki and inspired a big-budget remake in 2000.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre:?ACTION/ADVENTURE Rating:?NR UPC:?787364643493When car nut and aspiring B movie maverick H.B. "Toby" Halicki released his debut film, he gave top billing to his car, a yellow 1973 Ford Mustang named Eleanor. That's a good indication of Halicki's priorities in the original car-crunching, tire-squealing drive-in classic Gone in 60 Seconds. Halicki wrote, produced, starred, and did all of his own extraordinary stunt driving in the picture, the story of a career car thief who makes a deal to steal 48 cars for an overseas smuggler. OK, it's not Shakespeare. The plot is perfunctory at best, and Halicki's all thumbs when it comes to directing his wooden cast, but he gives a crash course in the mechanics of the car-theft biz and tops it off with one of the greatest car chases of all time: a 40-minute finale that roars through five Los Angeles-basin towns and destroys 93 cars in the process. It's a masterpiece of stunt driving, down-and-dirty photography, and sharp, furious cutting; the unsung hero of the picture is editor Warner Leighton, who paces the film perfectly and never lets it stall. Forget the messy Nicolas Cage in-name-only remake, this is outlaw auto cinema at its purest. --Sean Axmaker
