The actor that did those bottles totally ad libbed the scene, the line and the bottles How come that gang had a car and no one else did? The subway from Coney Isle to VC Park must take two hours ! The gang the wife laughs at the most is the one from Bensonhurst that comes in wearing T shirts and combing their hair. I like the army that stands at attention in an empty garage while their leader just sits in a chair with sunglasses on So how come all of NYC was empty except for cops, gangs and two couples on prom night?

HighPitch Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 This was shot along the A-C line in Brooklyn. You can make out the Nostrand Ave (above) and Franklin Ave stations among others (these shots are actually repeated several times during the credits). The Warriors are headed up to Van Cortlandt Park in the Bronx for a meeting of all of New York City’s gangs. Based in Coney Island, the gang naturally boards the D-train at the Coney Island – Stillwell Avenue station, which underwent a major renovation in 2004/05. As the credits continue, we’re treated to several shots of (sadly) unidentifiable subway stations with increasingly defunct elements. For example, the old entry gates… …and wooden turnstyles (there’s something so cute about the fact that this gang politely buys tokens for each member): As the movie begins, the Warriors have arrived at the Conclave, scripted as the Bronx’s Van Cortland Park, but actually shot in Riverside Park in Manhattan, just north of 96th Street: If you visit in person, you might be surprised to find that the park doesn’t seem as big as it does in the movie: However, this was the perfect location to set the Conclave, as the park’s many tiers (some built for the film) filled with people create the illusion of a much larger space: A wall was built around the northern side of the park… …which is good, because otherwise you’d see the very cute Dinosaur Playground just behind all the tough gang members! As Cyrus tries to convince the gangs to unite, we’re treated to a few shots of the gathered ruffians, including the very evil Luther, seated on the ground: Here’s another bunch perched in front of the park’s distinctive arches: But trouble is brewing as the police quietly approach. These gates can be found at the top of the arched structure (for you drivers, that’s the 96th Street on-ramp to the West Side Highway just beyond): More police officers arrive… …pulling up at the park’s main gates: Luther shoots Cyrus, then blames The Warriors. Chaos breaks out, and soon, everyone is running (by the way, is that a camera guy on the right side of the frame??): Falsely accused, the Warriors flee for their lives. More fleeing gang members: The Warriors exit the Conclave via the false wall at the northern end of the park (just to their left is Dinosaur Playground): The Warriors seek refuge in a nearby cemetery, which would be Woodlawn if they were actually in the Bronx: However, this was actually shot in Evergreen Cemetery, in the Cypress Hills section of Brooklyn: It’s very easy to find the Warriors’ shooting location: as you enter the Conway Street entrance, just follow the road to the right, and you’ll quickly see some of the distinctive graves above just off the road.
