YESSSS!!! I love this movie. I actually saw it at the Angelika theater when it first came out back in the Summer of 95. Sadly some of the actors in that movie passed away.

I was just watching Ghostbusters last night. They filmed in the Rose Room!

Watch The French Connection for one of the last glimpses of the Manhattan skyline pre-construction of the WTC (RIP).
