directed by william friedkin, this neo-noir film about money counterfeiting is awesome. dark and gritty and has an AWESOME GTA vice city-like soundtrack.
it stars GRISSOM as a serious actor who gives a brilliant performance, has a legendary car chase scene and has some great violence... i was taken aback by the authenticity of some of the hits landed.
i urge you to either watch or re-watch this bonafide classic.

Oh cool, Merc Lepidus is in it :)
Will add to Netflix cue or list or what it's called. Definitely not gonna torrent it.

I caught a NYTimes hosted screening of The French Connection where Friedken took questions afterward. He was there, ostensibly, to promote his new film - Killer Joe (which was rather mediocre, by the way). Friedken seemed like a really awesome guy, answering questions by bridging the gap between them and some marginally-related anecdote. He wasn't nearly as wooden as some of the other 'stars' I've seen take questions in a similar format. I thought I'd like to have a beer with him.

The descending sine lead is made by a bode frequency shifter. Awesome audio in this movie!
