The French Connection (1971)
THEY DON'T MAKE 'EM LIKE THIS ANYMORE
One of the first and best of the New York Detective films of the early 70's. Everything about it is exceptional. Gene Hackman and Roy Scheider have great chemistry as partners. Also of note is stunt driver Bill Hickman who plays the FBI man. Hickman did the stunt driving in the famous car chase scene. He also did the car chases in Bullitt and The Seven Ups. This film is like a fine wine, it gets better with age.
J-Men Forever (1979)
WHY ISN'T THIS OUT ON VIDEO
I first saw this gem on the USA network about 15 years ago. Although I haven't seen it since I still remember it. I never laughed so hard in my life. It uses the "Fractured Flickers" concept of redubbing over old films. And the Firesign Theatre does it with masterfull effect. Unfortunately it is not available on video or DVD, which to me is incomprehensible.
