Twin Towers appearances
This paranoid-thriller take on 1970s New York includes skyline shots with the twin towers, by then a fixture of the downtown silhouette.
A CIA helicopter sits parked at the foot of the twin towers, its rotor framed against their distinctive vertical facade, part of the film's extensive location work in and around the World Trade Center.
Pedestrians cross the World Trade Center's ground-level plaza in this shot, its arched colonnade and Fritz Koenig's globe sculpture visible behind them.
Trivia: Higgins' CIA office was filmed on an upper floor of the World Trade Center's North Tower, making this one of the only films ever given access to shoot inside the twin towers.
An aerial shot looks down over Lower Manhattan with the twin towers rising above the surrounding rooftops in a hazy establishing view of the city.
