We're pumped about the remake of the 1974 classic, "The Taking of Pelham One Two Three." Our sister blog Tracker reports that film crews checked out the Hoyt Schermerhorn station on Monday, where some filming of the '74 version was done, and will be in the Bronx on Tuesday. That's an excellent sign. IMDB reports filming begins this month, so you'll be reading more about it here soon. We truly can't wait to see how this version holds up against the original, a masterpiece of acting, pacing and soundtrack that is one of the best time capsules of 1970s New York.
