It is the 50th Anniversary of the Oscar-winning classic The French Connection. What better time, then, to take a look back and see if the film still holds up! Adam and Darrell head back to the mean streets of 1970s New York for William Friedkin's The French Connection (1971) before hopping the English Channel to France and the moyenne des rue of Marseilles for John Frankenheimer's The French Connection II (1975).
