I couldn’t agree more, I have it on DVD.
Interesting bit of trivia: Some of the POV moving tunnel shots were apparently actually filmed on the Market Street El in Philly...

I didn’t know that. Thought it was all in Manhattan. Thanks for that little tidbit.
I was also unaware of that. Back in the day (a bit over 50 years ago) used to take the Market Street El regularly. It went underground a bit east of 46th Street. BTW, American Bandstand was originally in West Philly at 46th and Market.

Risky Business...
One of the best movie lines of all time.....
Matthau at Mr. Green's (?) door when he says "gesundheit" at the end of the movie.

So this thread is NOT about sandwiches then...
No, although Pizza Rat could be said to be peripherally involved...
Naturally, Norma Bates Kitteh and Sylvia Siamese quoted one of the better lines from the film a few years ago...

I think both the old version and the new are good for different reasons. Enjoyed both.
Tonight I watched the original version on "Amazon Prime" - Check it out......
After watching both versions this week. I would give them both a thumbs up 👍 👍
