Podcasts about French Connection

If you think L.A. is Sodom and Gomorrah 2.0 today, it was not exactly Disney World in the 80s either. A movie came out in 1985 that showed the not so glamorous side of L.A. with a story about Secret Service agents chasing down a murderous, psychotic counterfeiter around L.A. That movie is William Friedkin's “To Live And Die In L.A.”, and if Friedkin's name sounds familiar, it's because he also directed “The Exorcist” and “The French Connection.” He brings his gritty, never-know-what-you're-gonna-get style to his action thriller. William L. Peterson plays the main character, Secret Service agent Richard Chance and his target in a quest for vengeance is a clever counterfeiter named Eric Masters, played by Willem Dafoe. Masters murders someone very close to Chance and that triggers a dangerous, frenzied pursuit where you never know who's going to make it out alive. “To Live And Die In L.A.” is also famous for a 80s cool soundtrack by Wang Chung. Is it worth checking out? Check out this episode to find out! “To Live And Die In L.A.” also stars Darlanne Fluegel, John Pankow, Debra Feuer, Dean Stockwell, Steve James and Robert Downey Sr.Support the showFeel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook

ABOUT NAT SEGALOFF'S BOOK HURRICANE BILLYOriginally published in 1990, Hurricane Billy: The Stormy Life and Films of William Friedkin is at last available again with a new foreword and extensive afterword written in assessment of William Friedkin's career following his 2023 death. Biographer Nat Segaloff draws upon his fifty-year friendship with the controversial director of The French Connection, The Exorcist, To Live and Die in L.A., Cruising, and his greatest achievement, Sorcerer.. This was the first book to offer an intimate portrait of the director. BearManor Media is proud to bring this work back into print. Nat Segaloff's Hurricane Billy: The Stormy Life and Films of William Friedkin is an in-depth look at this mercurial filmmaker of "The French Connection," "The Exorcist," Sorcerer" and other dynamic classics. Billy (his friends called him that) was as explosive as his movies. He was known to hit actors, shoot off a handgun to get an effect, and tell people off to their faces regardless of the consequences. Nat knew him for 50 years and wrote "The Exorcist Legacy" (2023) as well as more than 30 other books, mostly about movies. "Hurricane Billy" was written with Friedkin's participation in 1990 and is being republished after disappearing on its publication 35 years ago.ABOUT THOMAS CLAGETT'S WILLIAM FRIEDKIN: FILMS OF ABERRATION, OBSESSIIN & REALITYWilliam Friedkin: Films of Aberration, Obsession, and Reality was first published in 1990 and has been massively revised and expanded it for this new 2026 edition. It covers all of Friedkin's films in detail, and explores the connections between the man and his movies, as well as their cinematic legacy. It is incredibly provocative in showing how Friedkin's films reflect not only the man who made them but also the world he lives in.

Die auf realen Ermittlungen beruhende Jagd zweier New Yorker Drogenfahnder auf den internationalen Heroinring „French Connection“ bildet die Grundlage für diesen rauen Polizeithriller, der durch seine nahezu dokumentarische Inszenierung und die kompromisslose Darstellung von Polizeiarbeit jenseits herkömmlicher Heldenbilder besticht. Dies ist nicht zuletzt dem intensiven Spiel von Gene Hackman als obsessivem „Popeye“ Doyle sowie dessen Partner Buddy Russo, dargestellt von Roy Scheider, zu verdanken.Kontakt: podcast (at) retroboost.de

The Cinematography Podcast Episode 342: Michael Bauman Cinematographer Michael Bauman recently earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Cinematography for his work on One Battle After Another. Before becoming a cinematographer, Bauman spent years as a gaffer, working under legends like Robert Elswit, Janusz Kaminski, and the late Harris Savides. This mentorship gave him a masterclass in diverse visual languages and on-set problem-solving. After serving as a gaffer for director Paul Thomas Anderson on several projects, Bauman stepped into the DP role for the features Phantom Thread and Licorice Pizza. The decision to shoot One Battle After Another in VistaVision was Anderson's idea. Known for his commitment to celluloid, Anderson prefers old-school techniques: watching dailies on developed negative and editing with physical film. VistaVision offered a larger negative and higher resolution than standard 35mm without the massive footprint of IMAX. The challenge, however, was mobility. Historically used for stationary visual effects shots, the VistaVision camera is notoriously bulky. Anderson wanted the opposite: a dynamic, handheld, and Steadicam-heavy aesthetic. "The language of this entire movie is camera movement," says Bauman. "How do you take this format—with a viewing system that comes off the top at 45 degrees—and turn it into something that can capture the story the way he wants?" Putting an experienced team together was key for the endeavor. They had to be capable of troubleshooting in remote locations far from the safety of LA or New York hubs. Their goal wasn't perfection, but character. "In the digital world we soak in now, it's all about a pristine image," Bauman notes. "Blacks are super rich, whites are super crisp. We wanted to take this 'Kobe beef' format and turn it into a McDonald's hamburger—in the best way possible." The visual identity was further refined by referencing 1970s cinema, specifically The French Connection. Bauman studied the texture and color palettes of that era to emulate its "loose and rough" style. True to form, Anderson pushed to avoid modern LED lighting, preferring tungsten sources whenever space allowed. As a former gaffer, Bauman was happy to accommodate. Perhaps the greatest hurdle was the improvisational nature of the production. Anderson enjoys letting the actors improvise or even reshoot later. He doesn't use storyboards or do pre-vis, so even complex scenes had to be worked out in pre-production or on the day. “Every day was just like, you had to get comfortable with the uncomfortable,” comments Bauman. “I knew we were doing stuff in a good spot when I was really questioning all of it. We had to embrace all these happy accidents. It's free jazz all day long. It's exciting now, but at the time I was stressed as hell!” This spontaneity extended to the film's climax. The spectacular car chase wasn't fully scripted until the location manager discovered a road with rolling hills on the Arizona border. After a week of testing the VistaVision rigs on pursuit vehicles, the crew spent seven days capturing the sequence. Although it was in the wide-open desert, the characters chased each other over the undulating terrain, which allowed enough suspense to build before the spectacular conclusion.

Il video esamina la fuga di Tommaso Buscetta dagli Stati Uniti e il suo reinsediamento in Brasile nel 1971, analizzando la creazione di una vastissima rete di narcotraffico internazionale e le ambiguità legate alla sua scarcerazione americana. Buscetta in Brasile: Tra Amore, Affari e Servizi Segreti Introduzione Questo capitolo della saga dei Corleonesi si focalizza sul periodo di transizione di Tommaso Buscetta tra la fine degli anni '60 e l'inizio dei '70. Il boss, dopo un arresto spettacolare a New York, riesce a tornare in Sudamerica grazie a una cauzione sospetta, dando vita a un impero criminale che integrava la "French Connection" con le rotte latino-americane, il tutto sotto la copertura di attività legali e protezioni politiche di alto livello. Riassunto del Contenuto L'Arresto a New York e la Chirurgia Plastica: Dopo anni di latitanza sotto falso nome (Manuel Lopez Cadena), Buscetta fu arrestato sul ponte di Brooklyn nel 1970. In centrale, gli agenti notarono piccole cicatrici sul suo volto, segno di due interventi di chirurgia plastica falliti eseguiti in Messico per alterare i suoi lineamenti. Nonostante le richieste di estradizione dall'Italia, fu liberato dietro una cauzione di 40.000 dollari pagata da una compagnia assicurativa, alimentando il sospetto che fosse diventato un informatore delle autorità statunitensi. La Connessione con Carlo Zippo e i Francesi: Il video descrive l'alleanza strategica con Carlo Zippo, potente distributore di eroina a New York legato alla famiglia Gambino, e con i trafficanti corsi guidati da Lucien Sarti. Sarti, erede del declinante August Ricord, divenne il perno del traffico globale con base in America Latina. Insieme a Zippo e Buscetta, orchestrarono un sistema capace di inondare il mercato americano con quantità di droga ben superiori alla domanda dell'epoca, utilizzando piccoli aerei e rotte clandestine attraverso Paraguay e Messico. Nuova Vita a Rio de Janeiro: Atterrato in Brasile nel 1971, Buscetta adottò l'identità di Thomas Roberto Felice, presentandosi come un raffinato imprenditore italiano. In questo periodo incontrò Maria Cristina de Almeida Guimarães, una giovane studentessa di buona famiglia. Il legame con Cristina gli permise di entrare in contatto con il padre di lei, Omero, un uomo con profonde connessioni nel regime militare brasiliano. Buscetta investì ingenti capitali nelle aziende del suocero, trasformandole in coperture perfette per le sue operazioni internazionali. Corruzione e Coperture Politiche: L'organizzazione in Brasile non si limitava al narcotraffico, ma spaziava dal contrabbando di elettronica e orologi alla gestione di flotte di taxi e stabilimenti di alluminio. La protezione garantita da alti ufficiali dell'esercito brasiliano e la permeabilità alla corruzione delle istituzioni locali permisero a "Don Masino" di agire indisturbato, riorganizzando la rete dell'eroina direttamente collegata alla "French Connection" europea.

We're making up for a long-time oversight on the podcast by finally watching The French Connection, starring Gene Hackman and Roy Scheider! After exploring the historical context of 1971 films (and which Best Picture winners we've covered on the podcast), we turn our appreciation toward a thing that influenced so many on-screen car chases, cop movies, and The Wire. We talk about how our podcast keeps crossing over with fast food restaurants, how The French Connection captures the griminess of 1970s Brooklyn and subways and real locations (and real bars), and how William Friedkin seems hellbent on showing actual illicit activities on-screen. Joe admires chemistry glass Joey breaks down *the* on-screen car chase. We talk about how the film is like Fast Five.

Aujourdʹhui dans Travelling nous nous mettons dans la peau de policiers new-yorkais et nous partons traquer la drogue du côté de Marseille. Nous remontons la French Connection dans ce film policier américain réalisé par William Friedkin en 1971. Gene Hackman y est incroyable en flic incorruptible, raciste et véritable machine à pister les dealers. Il recevra lʹoscar du meilleur acteur pour sa prestation. Face à lui, Fernando Rey qui joue un riche criminel français, et Roy Schneider qui lʹaide pour camper la vraie histoire des flics du New York Police Department au département des narcotiques, ceux qui ont enquêté en 1962 sur les réseaux de la French Connection, organisation criminelle qui importait, depuis la France, la majeure partie de l'héroïne consommée aux États-Unis. Le film fait un triomphe à sa sortie. En France, il arrive auréolé de 5 oscars, y compris celui du meilleur réalisateur pour William Friedkin. Il sʹaccompagne également de mesures drastiques en France pour faire tomber la plateforme de la drogue marseillaise. Lʹhistoire du film et celle des dealers corses et marseillais se mêlent dans ce travelling. Il est temps de plonger dans la lutte antidrogue sans y risquer notre peau.

Opening with a interview with Megan Daubert ( https://www.megandaubert.com/ ), a wife and mother, whose husband, Michael, suffered a serious brain injury in 2024. She has since been documenting the arduous, inspiring, journey to recovery on her social media, and tonight she'll be on to talk about the challenges of dealing with both grief and gratitude, especially around the holidays. In the second half of the show we'll take calls, review some news from over the weekend (most notably Candace Owens), and spend a little time remembering a precious little friend of ours.

This time we review the French Offerings at the WTC 2025. This is one of my Dark Horse contenders this year bringing a mix of old and New Armies and bringing a lot of list innovation and subtle tech choices. The French Distinguish themselves from the pack but will it be enough.

In our latest tribute, Janet, John, (and Pen) celebrate the life and career of a very culturally edgy producer, screenwriter, and director of film, television, and opera who was closely identified with the "New Hollywood" movement of the 1970s... William Friedkin! Inspired by Citizen Cane as a child, he threw away his "bad boy" ways from high school and began his career in media by working for his local news station at 16, moving onto directing a live television series and docuseries, The People versus Paul Crump (1962). From there he went on to direct an episode of The Alfred Hitchcock Hour and then his first feature, Good Times (1967) staring Sonny Bono and Cher. Friedkin would go on to make a fantastic crime thriller, The French Connection (1971), which would then win him five Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director. He is also well known for his Academy Award nominated film The Exorcist (1973) and other films spanning multiple other genres like The Boys in the Band (1970), Sorcerer (1977), The Brink's Job (1978), Cruising (1980), To Live and Die in L.A. (1985.  To learn more about this episode and others, visit the official Cinema Sounds & Secrets website!

In our latest episode we're going back more than 50 years to 1971 where we'll be seeing Gene Hackman, a classic musical and another appearance from a podcast favourite...On this episode we'll be looking at a gritty New York crime saga that redefined the cop thriller in The French Connection, the sweeping yet tragic portrait of Russia's doomed royal family in Nicholas and Alexandra, the timeless story of tradition and change in Fiddler on the Roof, a haunting exploration of lost innocence in The Last Picture Show, and Stanley Kubrick's audacious, controversial vision of violence and control in A Clockwork Orange. Together, they capture a moment when Hollywood was pushing boundaries, questioning authority, and reshaping what a Best Picture nominee could be.

I ramble on about the movie Sorceror - turns out it does not have an actual sorceror in it (I think - still haven't seen it).  Also, let's talk about the awsomeness that is Roy Sheider.

Nottingham Forest have made a massive statement, shelling out a record fee for French sensation Arnaud Kalimuendo. But who is this electrifying 22-year-old forward? We break down his journey from the PSG academy to the Premier League, analyzing his dynamic playing style, what he brings to the City Ground, and how he will solve Forest's attacking woes. Is Kalimuendo the key to unlocking a new era of ambition for the Tricky Trees? Arnaud Kalimuendo, Nottingham Forest, Forest transfer news, Premier League transfers, NFFC.

We are back and have arrived at the next stop in the Scheider-Verse! We take a look at a much bigger supporting (borderline lead) role for our boy Roy after his breakout in Klute. It's New York by way of Marseille as we get down and dirty with The French Connection. The French Connection (1971)A pair of NYPD detectives in the Narcotics Bureau stumble onto a heroin smuggling ring based in Marseilles, but stopping them and capturing their leaders proves an elusive goal.Director: William FriedkinWriters: Ernest Tidyman, Robin Moore, William FriedkinStarring: Gene Hackman, Roy Scheider, Fernando ReyThanks to everyone who journeyed into the Scheider-Verse with us!

William Peterson was so new to film acting that he called his fellow Chicagoan thespian buddy John Malkovich to see what he should quote as his asking price to play the lead character of Richard Chance, a thrill-seeking Secret Service agent who'll lose his partner only days from retirement (red-shirted partner's, not Chance's) and will get a new partner in John Pankow's Agent John Vukovich to pervert in his (Chance's) vengeful pursuit of a counterfeiter played by Willem Dafoe. (Next year Peterson would play another officer of the law in Manhunter as covered during TGTPTU's Mann Aged Season {S5,E5}; as an EPISODE CORRECTION Pankow did not portray Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart in Miloš Forman's film Amadeus but had done so at the Broadhurst Theatre, replacing Tim Curry.)  Because it's a Friedkin flick, there's an epic car chase meant to top The French Connection; because it's shot from a Friedkin script (adapted from a novel by former Secret Service agent Gerald Petievich, who receives a cowriting credit), there was a lot of improvisation on set driven by the actors, with both the ending and opening scenes re/written during shooting. Mentioning actors, the film is stacked with supporting roles by Dean Stockwell, John Turturro (who'll get more mention later in Season 15), and the Michael Mann-created film noir for television Crime Story's very own Darlanne Fluegel (listen back to S5,E6 for insights on this TV series).   TGTPTU hosts become split on the merits of the film. Thomas describes the movie as The Friends of Eddie Coyle (1973) on neon cocaine, but—no spoilers—you'll have to listen to the ep for whether he believes this is a good thing. Also, Jack lets out the three-legged dog and Ryan, while finding it impossible to resist singing the title, has issue with William Pederson. Ken convinces everyone to Wang Chung tonight.  THEME SONG BY: WEIRD A.I.Email: thegoodthepodandtheugly@gmail.comFacebook: https://m.facebook.com/TGTPTUInstagram: https://instagram.com/thegoodthepodandtheugly?igshid=um92md09kjg0Bluesky: @goodpodugly.bsky.socialYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6mI2plrgJu-TB95bbJCW-gLetterboxd (follow us!):Podcast: goodpoduglyKen: Ken KoralRyan: Ryan Tobias

American Gangster (2007) is Ridley Scott's homage to The French Connection: it's got the right cars, clothes, and colors and is based on another true story of an obsessed cop trying to take down a drug kingpin. The feature (or the bug, depending on how you look at it) is Denzel Washington in the title role. Is an actor so charismatic that everyone talks as if they are on a first-name basis with him actually a liability in a movie that wants to tell a story of a large-scale heroin dealer who, in the movie's first scene, burns a man alive? Can an actor's star power ever backfire? John McCarty's Bullets Over Hollywood (Grand Central Publishing, 2005) traces the gangster film and explores the enduring appeal of the genre.

Retired Intelligence Detective Gary Jenkins brings you the best in mob history with his unique perception of the mafia. In this episode, Gary and retired FBI agent and mafia historian Bill Ouseley discuss the creation of the Kansas City Narcotics Syndicate, which emerged during the prohibition era as local mobsters adapted to the loss of revenue from bootlegging. The conversation explores how the organization capitalized on international trade routes—from Turkey to Sicily, France, Canada, and the U.S.—that were central to drug trafficking operations, including the infamous French Connection. Bill provides insights into the efforts led by Harry Anslinger, then-director of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics, to combat these syndicates. Despite Anslinger's tenacity, the Italian-Sicilian Mafia managed to turn narcotics into a lucrative enterprise. Kansas City played a significant role in this operation, with mob figures like Joe and Frank DeLuca orchestrating the drug trade as a formal, business-like entity. Tune in to learn about the federal crackdown, spearheaded by local narcotics agents, which ultimately disrupted this shadowy chapter of organized crime history.

So anyhow. Well, anyhow, that's a, that was a little aside folks. Uh, we're gonna talk about the Narcotic Syndicate in Kansas City as an example. We got you up to, you know, creating this, uh, uh. Organization to, to fight these narcotics organizations. And, and they were developed with international connections and, and trade routes from Turkey to Sicily to maybe France, uh, um, Canada to the United States. I believe that's the way the French connection kinda was, uh, part of their operation was through Canada, but part of it was directly from Marsai into, uh. To, uh, the port in New York City. And so, but Kansas City had a big piece of that. So, bill, let's talk a little bit about, you know, Harry Anslinger and the Yeah. Early narcotics, uh, uh, bureau and, and fighting, you know, these specific mafia gangs here in Kansas City. Bill: Anslinger is director of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics is going after. The, uh, trade routes. Of course, [00:01:00] they got narcotics agents in the various cities. They're establishing what's going on abroad. And at the same time, the uh, Italian Sicilian group, which is organized into what we call Cora, they're dipping their fingers into the drugs and making it a major operation. Anslinger, uh, his organization is truly the only one, I mean. Some local police departments, uh, uh, were involved certainly, but uh, on a federal basis they were the main stay. So, uh, while, while he's in working, the mob is working, you know, and Anslinger job is getting harder as they get better. What happened in Kansas City is our organization that consolidated during prohibition, seeing the end of prohibition, uh, the powers to be, uh, decide that losing [00:02:00] alcohol. They would replace it by going big time into a drug operation, and it was called the Kansas City Narcotics Syndicate. Our narcotics agent here, who was instrumental in, uh, breaking it up. Uh, he had another name for it, I forget right now, but it was like a, uh, subsidiary of the mob, which is what it was. They appointed one of the original founders of the organization, a guy named Joe DeLuca, and he was given the, uh, job. Of putting this together, he and his brother Frank, they put it together on a ba a criminal, I mean, on a business basis. Uh,
