at the abandoned Court Street station in Brooklyn. Closed to the public in 1946, it became a filming location
that may explain the stick telephone.
matthau about the location (link jumps to wikipedia entry - filming locations);
“There are bacteria down there that haven’t been discovered yet. And bugs. Big ugly bugs from the planet Uranus. They all settled in the New York subway tunnels. I saw one bug mug a guy. I wasn’t down there a long time—but long enough to develop the strangest cold I ever had. It stayed in my nose for five days, then went to my throat. Finally I woke up one morning with no voice at all, and they had to shut down for the day.”
