Fast and furious 2001 soundtrack download11/27/2022 ![]() The film’s leads were relative unknowns at the time: Walker was best known as the jock antagonist in She’s All That and The Skulls, while Diesel had turned heads the year before in the genre flick Pitch Black. Like that film, The Fast and the Furious, which hit theaters on June 22, 2001, sees a cop (Paul Walker’s Brian O’Conner) infiltrating an underground subculture (street racing instead of surfing), to get to the bottom of a series of heists, only to form a close bond with the charismatic perpetrator, here in the form of Vin Diesel’s Dominic Toretto. Nominally inspired by a Vibe magazine article looking at the world of New York City street-racing culture, the finished screenplay owed as much to Kathryn Bigelow’s 1991 Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze-starring action movie Point Break as it did to the magazine piece. So how did the original film prove successful enough to spawn six blockbuster sequels, each bigger and crazier than the last? And what elements of it still run through the newer movies, even as multimillion dollar sports cars leap between Middle Eastern skyscrapers? When the series began 14 years ago, with Rob Cohen’s 2001 The Fast and The Furious movie, it was a much more modest affair, one that hardly anticipated what it would mutate into. But not many multibillion dollar franchise has ever come from such humble origins as the Fast and the Furious movies. With Furious 7 hitting theaters on Friday, there’s no doubt that the Fast and the Furious franchise has become a megabudgeted, globetrotting, star-studded, physics-defying action juggernaut. ![]()
