94 years ago today, the English director Peter Yates was born in Aldershot, Hampshire.  Yates would go on to direct films in almost every genre but today, he’s perhaps best-remembered for directing what is considered to be one of the best car chases of all time.  Today scene that I love comes from Peter Yates’s 1968 film Bullitt and yes, that is Steve McQueen doing his own driving through the streets of San Francisco.
