THE CHASE IS ON
Although Frankenheimer acknowledges the many recent advances made in digital special effects technology,he chose not to utilize them in executing the thrilling chases and explasive action sequences in Ronin. Instead,he filmed the stunts "live" to heighten the level of reality
Frankenheimer's background as a race-car driver was crucial for his staging of the spectacular high-speed pursuits. Awareness of the vehicle's handling characteristicks enabled him and car stunt coordinator Jean-Claude Lagniez to devise car chases unlike any seen before. As Frankenheimer said:"We're really going to raise the bar . So the next time somebody wants to do one of this things,they are going to think twice about it"(Star Interviews).
Lagniez,an accomplished race car driver himself,supervised approximately 150 stunt drivers for various sequences in Ronin. They drove at speeds up to 120 miles per hour,and 80 cars were intentionally wrecked diring the course of the production.
During the filming of Ronin,Frankenheimer found himself relying on techniques he had refined over 30 years earlier for the magnificent racing sequences in Grand Prix(1966). The camera mounts and positions were almost identical to the ones he had used in the earlier film
To further boost the reality and suspense of the chases,Frankenheimer placed the actors inside the cars for several high-speed shots. "I wasn't prepared for how frightening it would be",Jonathan Pryce recalled. "I told John Frankenheimer after we shot the first of this, "I've done Shakespeare,I've done Chekhov and now I've done Fear!" There was no acting required on my part,believe me. .. "
One spectacular pursuit takes place inside a Paris tunnel that is remarkably similar to the location where England\'s Princess Diana was killed in a 1997 automobile accident. The filming took place in a different tunnel,however. "Paris has lots of tunnels, "Frankenheimer said. "That's part of the thing about the city I wanted people to see. A crash in a tunnel in Paris is about like someone having a crash on a freeway here. It happenes all the time "(Rocky Mountain News,9/27/98).
They used british right wheel drive cars, and sat the actors in the passenger seats with fake steering wheels to copy what the stunt drivers were doing, which is why de niro genuinely looks like hes going to shit himself everytime it cuts to him

lol, I was gonna make fun of Ronin.
It's one of the worst "If you pay even the slightest attention you can tell they did the chase at 10 miles per hour" feels.
edit: That one actually isn't too bad.. I think it's another chase earlier in the movie that's the one I'm thinking of.
They have one in... Nice ? IIRC. It's a lot less spectacular and has a couple of corny car chases comedic routines in my memories, closer to the tone of Rémy Julienne's car stunt team. The final chase in Paris is great, even if the geography is absurd (it's a movie).
On that tangent, Julienne has a monster resume but he did so many of these that at one point you instantly recognize them, and not in a good way. Here comes the barrels loose from a truck ! And now the car will drive on two wheels !

Original Italian Job has good stuff too.
Live like a man die like a cop & Heroin Busters have some crazy stunts too but it's more motorbikes. Napoli Spara ! has a spectacular sequence with an Alfa Romeo in Naples.

.
The last two MIs have had entertaining vehicle chase sequences, among a variety of consistently interesting choreographed and shot practical action scenes. Even in building upon successful aspects of other films they've managed to distinguish themselves (I think about how tastefully made Nation's opera sequence is compared to the one in Quantum of Solace that it shares a handful of basic similarities to).
