The scene in which Paul Newman is trying to keep Richard Jaeckel alive using mouth-to-mouth is one of the most haunting and memorable from that era's films (late 60s/early 70s; for my money, the true golden age of cinema). Here are some others I would compare it to: 1.) Oliver Reed vs. a pack of wolves in "The Trap". Reed's greatness as an actor was overshadowed by his off-screen, alcohol-induced antics, but watch him, outnumbered, terrified and enraged, fighting for his life in this scene - he was never better. 2.) The final slow-motion rodeo scene in J.W. Coop: Final score: Bull 1, Cliff Robertson 0. Still can't figure out how they filmed it - it looks like a snuff film. 3.) The opening 'frying pork chop' sequence from "Electra Glide In Blue". Flabbergasting and brilliant.
