This week's French Connection podcast episode covers one of the most thrilling and morally complicated films of 1971. Ryan, Mike, and Greg revisit The French Connection on Movie of the Year. William Friedkin's Best Picture winner changed what American cinema thought a hero could look like. In addition, this episode features a special Gene Hackman career retrospective.Released in 1971, the film follows New York City detective Jimmy "Popeye" Doyle — based on real NYPD detective Eddie Egan, with partner Sonny Grosso inspiring the character of Russo. Doyle pursues a massive heroin operation with little regard for the law or the people around him. As a result, the film won five Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor. It remains one of the defining films of the New Hollywood era.This Movie of the Year podcast episode is one of the most anticipated of the 1971 season. Before diving in, check out our recent episodes on The Last Picture Show and A Clockwork Orange.Joining the Taste Buds for this episode is special guest C. Craig Patterson A screenwriter, director, and filmmaker based in Los Angeles. An alum of Columbia University, NYU's Tisch School of the Arts, and USC's School of Cinematic Arts, Patterson brings serious cinematic credentials to the table. His short film Fathead won the Cannes Film Festival Best Student Short Award and earned an NAACP Image Award nomination. His scripts have been recognized by the Sundance Screenwriters Lab, The Black List, and the Academy's Nicholl Fellowship. Patterson also directed the critically acclaimed Roy Wood Jr. comedy special Imperfect Messenger for Paramount+. With projects currently in development at Paramount and Epic Games, he is one of the most exciting emerging filmmakers working today — and exactly the kind of guest who makes a film like The French Connection worth revisiting.The French Connection 1971 Podcast: Popeye Doyle — Hero, Antihero, or Something Worse?The central tension of this French Connection 1971 podcast discussion is what to make of Popeye Doyle. Gene Hackman plays him as a force of nature — relentless, racist, reckless, and completely compelling. He is not a good man, and he is barely a good cop. Nevertheless, the film frames his obsession as heroic, his instincts as genius, and his victory as worth celebrating.Ryan, Mike, and Greg dig into what Friedkin and screenwriter Ernest Tidyman were doing with Doyle. Is the film a critique of the kind of law enforcement he represents? Or is it simply in love with him? The answer is probably both. Ultimately, that ambiguity is what makes the character so difficult and so fascinating fifty years later.The Real Detectives Behind the StoryThe real detectives, Eddie Egan and Sonny Grosso, consulted on the film and even appear in small roles. Consequently, knowing the story is grounded in a real investigation makes Doyle's behavior harder to dismiss. These were not fictional excesses invented for dramatic effect, and the panel takes that seriously.Gene Hackman won the Academy Award for Best Actor for this role, beating out Peter Finch, Walter Matthau, George C. Scott, and Topol. Furthermore, it remains one of the most celebrated performances of the 1970s. The panel uses this episode to look back at Hackman's broader career and make the case for where he stands in the pantheon.For more on Gene Hackman's career, visit the Internet Movie Database.William Friedkin and the New Hollywood Crime FilmDirector William Friedkin approached The French Connection as a documentary-style thriller. He shot on location in New York City with handheld cameras and natural light, refusing to glamorize either the city or its characters. As a result, the film feels unlike almost anything else from 1971 — raw, kinetic, and deeply uncomfortable.The Taste Buds explore how Friedkin's direction shaped the film's identity. Most notably, the legendary car chase under the elevated train tracks in Brooklyn is widely considered one of the greatest action sequences ever filmed. Friedkin shot it on live New York City streets without fully stopping traffic, with a camera mounted to the front of the car. For critical analysis of the chase, the Criterion Collection offers essential reading.Friedkin After The French ConnectionJust two years later, Friedkin directed The Exorcist, cementing his place as one of the defining filmmakers of the decade. The panel discusses what the two films share and what The French Connection reveals about Friedkin's sensibility. In both cases, his camera feels like it is barely keeping up with reality — and that is entirely by design.For more on Friedkin's influence on American cinema, visit the American Film Institute.The French Connection Podcast Discussion: Justice and Its LimitsAt its core, The French Connection is about the gap between justice and the law. Popeye Doyle operates outside the rules, endangers civilians, shoots an unarmed man in the back, and ultimately fails to bring the main target to justice. Despite all of this, the film presents his pursuit not as tragedy but as the cost of doing business.Ryan, Mike, and Greg examine what the film says about the American justice system in 1971 — a moment of profound national disillusionment. Vietnam, the civil rights movement, and the early signs of Watergate were all in the air. Meanwhile, the "good guys" in this film are not good, the "bad guys" are not caught, and the audience is asked to root for the pursuit anyway.Race and Policing in The French ConnectionMoreover, the film's racial politics are impossible to ignore. Doyle's racism is presented as character texture rather than moral failing, and the film never fully grapples with the implications of the policing it depicts. That discomfort is an important part of the conversation this week.For historical context on the real case, visit the DEA's history of the French Connection.Gene Hackman Best Performances: A Career RetrospectiveThis episode includes a special segment on Gene Hackman's best performances. The Taste Buds make their case for the defining Hackman roles and debate his greatest work. In particular, they discuss what made him such an unusual screen presence: his everyman quality, his capacity for rage, and his refusal to tell the audience how to feel about his characters.His breakthrough came in Bonnie and Clyde in 1967, and his Oscar followed here in The French Connection. Subsequently, classics like The Conversation, Mississippi Burning, Unforgiven, and The Royal Tenenbaums cemented one of the most extraordinary bodies of work in American cinema. This segment celebrates an actor who never got quite enough credit for how good he really was.Why The French Connection 1971 Still MattersMore than fifty years later, The French Connection remains essential viewing. Beyond its technical achievements, it functions as a moral document — capturing a specific American mood: exhausted, suspicious, and uncertain about its own institutions.Ultimately, this French Connection podcast episode revisits the film as a living argument about power, obsession, and the stories we tell about law enforcement. It asks hard questions, and this episode doesn't let them off the hook.Related Episodes from Movie of the Year: 1971If you enjoyed this episode, check out the rest of the Movie of the Year 1971 series:The Last Picture Show — Bogdanovich, nostalgia, and a dying Texas townA Clockwork Orange — Kubrick, free will, and the limits of the stateBrowse all Movie of the Year episodesFAQ: The French Connection Podcast and FilmWhat is The French Connection podcast episode about?Ryan, Mike, and Greg discuss William Friedkin's 1971 Best Picture winner.

Y hay películas que cambian para siempre la forma de filmarlo. En este nuevo episodio de Criterio Cero nos sumergimos en The French Connection, el thriller seco, sucio y revolucionario que redefinió el cine policial en los años 70. Pero para entender la película… primero había que entender la realidad. En el programa viajamos al origen del caso real: La conexión marsellesa. El imperio de la heroína ligado a las mafias italianas. Su expansión en Nueva York y la posterior sucesión criminal en Harlem con figuras como Frank Lucas. Hablamos del entramado internacional de narcotráfico que inspiró la historia y del contexto social de una América marcada por la droga, la corrupción y la desconfianza institucional. Después nos adentramos en la película. Analizamos su producción al detalle: – Las complicadas y casi improbables contrataciones del reparto. – La elección de Hackman como Popeye Doyle cuando no era la opción obvia. – El estilo casi documental impuesto por Friedkin. Repasamos cómo se rodaron sus escenas más míticas: – La persecución bajo el tren elevado, filmada sin permisos completos y con riesgo real para peatones y conductores. – El uso de cámaras ocultas y luz natural. – Las decisiones técnicas que dieron al film su tono crudo e irrepetible. Y, por supuesto, desgranamos la película escena por escena, analizando: La obsesión de Popeye Doyle. La construcción del antagonista Alain Charnier. ️ La ciudad de Nueva York como personaje. ⚖️ El final anticlimático y su carga moral. Un estudio completo sobre un film que no glorifica al héroe, que no ofrece cierre cómodo y que convirtió la persecución en arte cinematográfico. En este programa participan Luis y Salva Vargas, en una conversación profunda sobre cine, historia criminal y el nacimiento del thriller moderno. Porque antes de los policías estilizados y las coreografías imposibles… hubo sudor, asfalto, improvisación y una obsesión llamada Popeye Doyle. Dale al play y entra en la conexión.

Join Watching Wyrd for a live deep dive into the legendary career of Gene Hackman — from gritty crime dramas to unforgettable character roles. Tonight we're sharing favorite performances, debating iconic moments, and serving up our signature mix of film history, hot takes, and cinematic chaos.Expect:
In this episode of With Stugotz & Hochman, Marc Hochman is jealous of the week Stugotz is about to have living it up on Radio Row. Plus, we get the origin story of one of Hoch’s greatest creations: Mark Hackman, the so-called Miami insider who used to call into local radio hits. When hosts asked about the Heat, Hackman would respond with classics like “hamburguesa con queso” or “esta noche somos mantequilla”—phrases that somehow, some way, always loosely translated to how well Chris Bosh was playing at the time.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Seventy percent of the protein your herd uses for lactation is derived from the microbial population in her rumen. Researchers from UC Davis and Feedworks USA sought to learn more about how different substrates might impact rumen microbial efficiency. They did this with the ultimate goal of increasing the flow of protein available for absorption to help offset feed costs, recognizing protein is the highest cost of the ration, and likely the largest fraction to the cost of production on most dairies. “We know that efficency of growth in the rumen varies dramatically, nearly 2 fold. Microbes can use 1/3 of their energy for growth or as much as 2/3,” Hackmann described. His lab is using invitro cultures to attempt to determine why this variation exists. “If we can pinpoint cause then we can accomidate and make microbes grow more efficiently and deliver more protein to the ruminant at a lower cost.” Past models, used in ration formulation software such as CNCPS, claim rumen bacteria perform digestion more efficiently when fed cellulose, over glucose. However, featured work by Dr. Tim Hackmann's invitro lab suggests a different result. “We found there will be a larger mass of microbes that grow on glucose then cellulose but they also digest more, so the efficiency is not differnet.” Listen-in to this episode for in interesting dive into the expected changes in the rumen under these conditions. An added bonus banter from Dr. Benjamin Wenner, ruminant nutritionist with FeedWorks USA and co-author on the featured article, about the futuristic concepts possible for ruminant nutrition with mindful investment.

Send us a textThis episode is a tribute to a great actor, Gene Hackman, who decided to retire from the silver screen and write novels. He wrote five of them and all got some level of acclaim. They were : “Wake of the Perdido Star” with Daniel Lenihan (1999) “Justice for None” with Daniel Lenihan (2004)“Escape from Andersonville” with Daniel Lenihan (2008)“Payback at Morning Peak” (2011)“Pursuit” (2013)While this episode is a focused examination at his second career it is also a retrospective of his amazing life. Hackman passed away on most likely February 18, 2025, he was 95 years old. Hackman was one of our host, Randal Wallace's favorite actors and he plans to read a couple of his novels this coming year in 2026. Gene Hackman's writing tips emphasize the importance of discipline, rigorous editing, and emotional connection to the material. Write with discipline: Hackman writes in the morning, stopping by early afternoon, to maintain a routine.Edit heavily: He stresses the importance of the editing process, advising writers not to fall in love with their first draft and to be open to criticism. He would go over his work many times.Write what you care about: To be fulfilled as a writer, he suggests focusing on subjects close to your heart.Keep dialogue minimal: Drawing from his acting experience, he often cut his own lines, saying, "I can act that," highlighting the power of non-verbal communication in storytelling.Use research: He incorporated extensive research into his historical fiction and thrillers, including scouting locations and consulting experts.Stay in the moment: He advises against over-analyzing and to "let the characters tell the damn story," focusing on action and immediate events rather than excessive introspection or backstory.Seek feedback: Hackman worked closely with his co-author and relied on his wife for critique and typing up his longhand manuscripts.

To wrap up 2025 with the 70th episode of the year (and the 706th show in the history of Have You Ever Seen), it was high time to yap about Tony Scott. Crimson Tide is one of the underrated director's best flicks. His mutiny-on-a-submarine movie stars Gene Hackman as a crass, demanding captain battling his thoughtful, by-the-book executive officer played by Denzel Washington. The often-glaring Denzel and the often-speechifying Hackman are both fantastic...and they're helped by a strong supporting cast that includes a pre-Aragorn Viggo & a pre-Soprano Gandolfini. The tension in this one is as high as it gets, since nuclear war with Russia is at stake. It's just a terrific boat movie. I wish you a hunky dory NYE and I hope you'll spend close to an hour in the last few hours of '25 or in the early days of '26 hearing me rave about Crimson Tide. Subscribe to this show in your podcast app. Review it too. Post a 5-star rating. Also, hunt me down on Letterboxd: RyanHYES.

On May 17, 1968, in Scott County, Kentucky, a man stumbled upon a tarp he thought he could salvage—only to find a woman whose identity would remain a mystery for nearly three decades. Who was she? How did she come to be left alone in that field? And what details were missed that might have connected her to her family sooner? In this episode, we explore the extraordinary path that led from an unmarked grave to the truth: the woman the world knew as “Tent Girl” was Barbara Ann Hackmann. How did her case inspire a determined young man to launch one of the earliest online sleuthing movements? What did her family learn once her identity was restored? And what legacy did her case leave for thousands of other unidentified victims? Tune in to uncover the full story.

Karla Hackman's path into metalsmithing began in the most unexpected of ways—through a background in academia, ceramics, and a love of collecting stones on long hikes. Karla eventually traded in a steady career in higher education for the leap into jewelry, and over the last twelve years she's built a body of work that balances the organic and the architectural, the soft and the strong.In our conversation, Karla shares how her surroundings in the Southwest shape her collections, the inward journey of self discovery that art has taken her on, and the ways she finds both grounding and freedom at the bench. We also talk about the realities of making a living as an independent artist—navigating production work alongside one-of-a-kind pieces, honoring exploration, and letting your creative voice evolve over time.It's a thoughtful, down-to-earth conversation about what it means to make with intention, and I think you'll really enjoy it.Follow Karla...Karla on Instagram: @karlahackmanKarla's Website: karlahackman.comLove the Podcast?Support an episode: Click here to learn more!Without your support I couldn't continue the Slowmade Podcast.

This week we're excited to present a conversation with cinematographer Fred Murphy as he discusses Hoosiers. Hoosiers played as part of our recently concluded retrospective celebrating the career of the late, great Gene Hackman. This conversation was moderated by FLC Senior Programmer Tyler WIlson. Few sports films land with the clarity, grit, and emotional lift of Hoosiers. Gene Hackman brings flinty, lived-in authority to Norman Dale, a disgraced coach seeking a second act in 1950s Indiana, where basketball is practically a religion. Directed with unflashy conviction by David Anspaugh and shot in real Hoosier gyms, this underdog story favors restraint over bombast, with Jerry Goldsmith's elegiac score and a quietly shattering turn by Dennis Hopper as a washed-up assistant adding unexpected weight. At its core is one of Hackman's most cherished performances—contained, weathered, and quietly magnetic—in a film that's less about victory than the long, uncertain work of earning it.
This week we're saddling up with The Quick and the Dead (1995), Sam Raimi's spaghetti western by way of a Looney Tunes fever dream. Sharon Stone rides into town with a score to settle, Russell Crowe tries to outrun his past, and Gene Hackman chews the scenery like it's a steak he overcooked himself. Leonardo DiCaprio is all charm and babyface bravado, and every gunfight is a crash zoom carnival of smoke, sweat, and a ticking clock. It's duels at high noon, showdowns at sundown, and the kind of over-the-top visual flair that makes you wonder if the camera's going to start shooting bullets too. We're locking, loading, and going full Raimi on this one. Did you enjoy the episode? Don't forget to hit that subscribe button and join us for more retro movie discussions! Want even more?

For our Gene Hackman season we just completed, we were supposed to close it out with our episode on Gene's terrific performance in THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS. We recorded it, but due to a technical issue we were unable to release it, and decided at the same time to cover Wes Anderson for our next season. So we re-recorded a discussion of THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS for this episode. Please send any and all feedback to anotherlookpod@gmail.com.

With all the greatest love and admiration and with respect to all the behind-the-scenes skullduggery that took place while this film was made, we talk about Superman II -- the theatrical (Richard Lester) cut with comparison to The Donner Cut (because the seams were too unseemly and Dave went back and subsequently found it impossible to ignore in this discussion).We can't help but have real issues with Superman II...Join Our Riotous DC Debauch!Site: https://dconscreen.comStore: https://bit.ly/DCoStorePatreon: https://patreon.com/dconscreenApple: http://bit.ly/DCoSReviewSpotify: http://bit.ly/DCSCREENSpreaker: https://bit.ly/DCoSSpreaker

Also, Josh reviews Nicole Kidman in HOLLAND, Michael Shannon's directing debut ERIC LARUE, and nominates the inventive (if "Memento"-inspired) new thriller GAZER for the Golden Brick.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 4: 6:05pm- On Friday night, President Donald Trump spoke with the press briefly before boarding Marine One—where he reacted to his chaotic meeting with Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky. Trump accused Zelensky of “over playing his hand” and continued to insist the U.S. merely wants “peace.” 6:10pm- What's your favorite Gene Hackman movie? Rich and Justin debate—meanwhile Matt concedes the only Hackman movie he has ever seen is “Welcome to Mooseport.” 6:30pm- On Friday, President Donald Trump invited Ukrainian leader Volodymyr Zelensky to visit the White House with the intention of holding a joint press conference before signing an agreement that would provide security guarantees to Ukraine in exchange for access to the country's rare earth mineral reserves. However, while speaking with the press in the Oval Office, Zelensky seemingly blamed the United States for ignoring Russian aggression and predations, specifically in 2014. In response, Trump noted that he wasn't in office at that time—and unlike then-President Barack Obama, who provided Ukrainians with “sheets,” the Trump Administration armed Ukraine with javelin missiles. During the heated exchange, Trump stated: “You're gambling with the lives of millions of people. You're gambling with World War III.” At one point, he emphasized “if you didn't have our military equipment this war would have been over in 2-weeks.” According to a report from The Wall Street Journal, Zelensky left the White House without signing the negotiated agreement.
