Treasures from the Yale Film Archive: Speed

SPEED (Jan de Bont, 1994, 35mm, 116 mins)

30th anniversary screening! A bus, a bomb, and a thrill ride through L.A. traffic in a blockbuster Anthony Lane called “the best vehicle-in-peril movie since THE WAGES OF FEAR.” SPEED takes the good cop/bad cop trope to explosive new extremes, picking up two Oscars along the way. Keanu Reeves, Sandra Bullock, and a devilish Dennis Hopper star. 35mm print from the Yale Film Archive.
