Synopsis:

Screen legends Walter Matthau ( Charley Varrick ) and Robert Shaw ( Force 10 from Navarone ) team up with Martin Balsam ( After the Fox ) and Hector Elizondo ( Valdez Is Coming ) to deliver a sure-fire entertainment that's gripping and exciting from beginning to end and is guaranteed to give you the ride of your life. A gang of armed professionals hijack a New York subway train somewhere outside the Pelham station threatening to kill one hostage per minute unless their demands are met. Forced to stall these unknown assailants until a ransom is delivered or a rescue is made, transit chief Lt. Garber (Matthau) must shrewdly outmaneuver one of the craftiest and cruelest villains (Shaw) in a battle of wits that will either end heroically or tragically. Featuring masterful direction by Joseph Sargent ( White Lightning ), gorgeous widescreen cinematography by Owen Roizman ( The French Connection ), a classic rousing score by David Shire ( The Conversation ) and top-notch editing by Jerry Greenberg ( Apocalypse Now ) and Robert Q. Lovett ( Cotton Comes to Harlem ).
