20 Things You Somehow Missed In Collateral
6. One Of Collateral's Deleted Scenes Added To Vincent's Skillset
While deleted scenes usually slow the pace of most movies, they still have nuggets of plot and character information that go a long way in increasing the appreciation of a particular film.
This is certainly the case with a brief scene that unfortunately did not make Collateral's final cut. The sequence in question has Vincent and Max evading the FBI and other authority figures as they make their way to Club Fever.
The scene shows Vincent's ability to pick up and eventually lose any vehicle tailing him (even helicopters through his knowledge of airport regulations). Despite this, it is easy to see why this scene was cut due to pacing reasons, especially given how quickly it was referenced later in the movie in a brisk line of dialogue.
