Thanks to Gothamist for reminding us of a perfect movie to see on July 4: the 1979 cult classic "The Warriors." Will our gang make it safely from the northern climes of the city to safety in Coney Island? It's one heck of a ride along the way, with many looks at the subway trains (You even see a "train to the plane") and stations as they were in the first years of the Koch administration. Gothamist notes the movie is now out on HD-DVD, so you'll be able to survey all that New York crime-and-grime up close.
