    people talk about the car chase, which admittedly is great, but for me this is by far the best sequence in the film, the cat and mouse game on the street and then ducking in and out of the subway, it's so much fun

      Yup, it's a masterwork of writing, acting, sound editing AND choreography. Great stuff. For me though, the biggest jolt in the flick is when Popeye is almost shot outside his apt building. First time I watched this one, that really made me jump, didn't see it coming at all!

      The perp was a lousy sniper. If he had been, there would have been no story.

    The French Connection, a masterpiece of a crime drama as well as an action movie. The 1960s/1970s gave us so many great crime drama-action movies:
    .Point Blank (1967) w/ Lee Marvin
    .Bullitt (1968) w/ Steve McQueen
    .The French Connection (1971) w/ Gene Hackman
    .Dirty Harry (1971) w/ Clint Eastwood
    .Get Carter (1971) w/ Michael Caine
    .Death Wish (1974) w/ Charles Bronson
    To name a few.

    Just learned that Friedkin and his DP didnt' use dolly tracks to get the shot of Popeye first getting on the subway from 3:56 : they had a guy sitting in a wheelchair. When Popeye first enters the car the camera shakes because the operator had to get up out of the chair and follow Hackman. Damn, I love this movie!

    • @sgt.thundercok4704
      @sgt.thundercok4704 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I like Hackman's little look back at 4:00 to make sure the faux blockade gave enough time for the camera to get up and follow.

    Love those city time pieces. I've been on that shuttle hundreds if not thousands of times. I'm always thinking the French Connection. especially walking past the Roosevelt.

  • @geoffdb9638

    Absolutely love those scenes. Just a breathtaking, intense sequence of see-me, catch-me. Eventually, Popeye doesn't care when he knows he's been burned. The preceding evening French dinner provided 100% proof to the drug dealer that he was being tailed. So, why not enjoy the meal & dessert while those cops froze...brilliant.

    0:47: some of the best music used in the movie. Note how it slowly builds to a crescendo and then it's just cut off when Charnier goes down the stairs in the subway.

    R-17 6609 has been preserved in its original maroon paint scheme by the New York Transit Museum - not because it happened to be in this film, but because it once had experimental air conditioning. That subway sequence took two nonconsecutive days to film. You can tell it was shot over two days because the trainsets were swapped out - the car numbers are not the same.

    • @arrow1414
      @arrow1414 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think you might be mistaken. The first train Frog One and Popeye got on and off was 6671. It was tge first/last car (depending on which direction it was going). It and the rest of the train pulled out of the station, leaving both Frog One and Popeye at the platform consession stand. Then the second train with 6609 as the second car/next to last car pulled in. Frog One and Popeye got on and off and on, with Popeye finally being left on the platform with Frog One waving "toodle-loo". 😂 I didn't find any inconsistency in the number plates regarding the large rectangular ones with white numbers.

    • @8avexp
      @8avexp 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@arrow1414 6671 was the first/last car of the trainset at the start of that sequence. 6609 was the second car of the train that Charnier gives Popeye the slip. You have to look quickly or freeze the frame, but the car coupled to 6609 is 6548.

    Supposedly, in real life, the fact that the French kingpin (Jehan?) waved at Eddie Egan proved in court that he knew he was being tailed.
