Similar set up?


I watched this movie last night, and the scenario of the baddie bantering and verbally sparring with the goodie over a phone line seemed very familiar. I'm sure I've seen this scenario in quite a few films before, but I can't think what they are! (Apart from Die Hard).

Please help - which other films use this type of scenario, and which was the first to do it?

Many thanks!

The original Taking of Pelham One Two Three comes to mind.

Inside Man, also with Denzel Washington.
