The French Connection / USA/ 1971/ Dir: William Friedkin/ 104 Min/ Current Rotten Tomatoes Score: 97%
Spurring a surge of gritty imitators, William Friedkin's THE FRENCH CONNECTION caught cinema by storm in 1971 with its taught portrayal of real-life events involving the NYPD and a French drug smuggling ring.
Featuring Gene Hackman in a legendary performance as Popeye Doyle and a "car" chase that would become the gold standard for chase scenes in cinema, THE FRENCH CONNECTION hasn't been tamed one bit over the past decades.
