Pictures

Bullitt Chase Scene - This is a highly edited clip from the Steve McQueen classic.  You mayl need Windows Media Player to view it (free from Microsoft).  Click on the link to download it, then watch Steve blow up the bad guys. [WARNING!! THIS IS A BIG FILE] (13.7 meg), so you will have to wait a bit for it to load. If you're using a 56K dialup modem, you might want to pass unless you have time to spare. Even with DSL or cable, it will take 2-3 minutes before you see a picture.  Personally, I think it's worth the wait!  NOTE:  Once you download the file, it will remain in your temporary internet files folder (unless you delete it).  When you view it a second time, it will play immediately from your hard drive.
