Thriller starring Walter Matthau, Robert Shaw
Four desperate men hatch a hijack plot with a difference. They take over a New York subway car - and 17 of its passengers - and demand one million dollars, to be paid within the hour. A nail-biting situation ensues as the hijackers threaten to kill the passengers unless the ransom is paid.
