In 9, he catches sight of Garza and contact is established. Halloran quickly gives the news to Muldoon and the chase begins.
Garza is still running (14) but we see that he has meanwhile got some way ahead.
The next shot (75) places Halloran quite clearly in relation to Garza : he is just passing the woman and child whom we saw in 5 (note that the camera set-up in 5 and 15 is the same). This implies that while Muldoon has been giving instructions, Halloran has just had time to reach the place from which Garza started running during shot 3.
We cut back to Muldoon (16-17) and hear that he is going to try to cut off Garza's escape from the other side.
Meanwhile, 18 shows Garza slowing down through exhaustion.
He is followed by Halloran (79) and we see that the detective is drawing closer. (The two stills may be a little confusing at this point. 18 is taken from the very beginning of the shot and 19 from near the end. Thus the two men do not appear in the film to be in quite such close pursuit as the stills suggest.)
In 20 we see that Garza has become aware of Halloran's presence and is putting on a fresh spurt.
Again, we cut away from the main action. 21 keeps us aware of Muldoon's movements, and implies, when we cut to shot 22, that Garza has had time to reach the overhead crossing.
At this point the editor has slightly distorted the true continuity of events. Shot 23 shows Halloran barely farther along the bridge than he was in 19 — not nearly as far along, in fact, as the duration of shots 20-22 would suggest. The purpose of taking this liberty — it is not noticeable at a first viewing — is to show that Garza has once more succeeded in leaving Halloran far behind.
Again we cut back to Muldoon, and the conflict changes : it is now between Garza and Muldoon's men, Halloran having been left behind. The gun-fight is simply presented in to-and-fro reaction shots 26-31.
Then, in 32, Garza realises that he cannot get past the cops and decides to turn back. He sees Halloran behind him (33) and is cornered.
Thus : Garza is sighted in 9 ; in 14-15 he is seen to be a long way ahead ; in 75-79 Halloran has nearly caught up ; in 20 Garza puts on an extra spurt ; and we see in 22-23 that he has again succeeded in getting away. Then follows the quick interchange of gunfire (24-31) and finally the presence of Halloran in
