Jesus! I wasn't expecting _The French Connection_ to be so spectacular! Gene Hackman's always so electrifying. One of the greatest films to have blessed the world of cinema, period. *22 December 2023*
WOW!!!! Makes me wanna jump into my DeLorean and travel back to 1971 and that multiplex down the street from that new coffee shop, I think it’s called Starbucks Seriously, GREAT job!!! Popeye & Cloudy would love it
Very good re-envisioning of the trailer. A great movie. Yes, there are some parts that are slow, but in this film, they actually add something. A classic for the ages!
Trivia: Roy Scheider saw this in a black theater. When the "never trust an N-word scene" was coming up, he cringed. The scene played out and the audience erupted in cheers. He later asked a black friend why did the audience cheer that scene? His friend told him that black people know that's how the police think of them and they finally acknowledged it.
Better than the original trailer!I love this movie and I love the French version too, called La French which takes places from 1975 until 1981 in Marseille(south France) and it was released 2 years ago.
I’ll betcha that if some theater owner stuck this in with all the other junk trailers of current films they’d get more people asking when THIS film was opening instead of Transformers 6
Incidentallt, 0:25 the white Torino is just some guy on his way to work. The streets weren't closed, and this was a genuine accident. They paid for his repairs, though.
Can someone please explain to me why this movie is so famous and classic, and got ALOT of awards and Oscars?! After watching it I was like: that's it?! No plot, acting is fine, nothing special...a moderate movie...was it the first of its genre in the early 70s? Is that why?!
Not the first but for the time, one of the most realistic. You have to have seen films prior to this one to understand how groundbreaking it was. Almost all modern cop dramas owe their existence to this film and "Bullit" (1968).
It was very much a game-changer for its time because it was based on a real event, shot documentary-style on location in NYC, not on a studio backlot, so that gave it a gritty, voyeuristic feeling cop films of that time didn’t have. It didn’t have any big stars, its main character was a borderline bigot who became totally obsessed with catching the guy with the beard who was running the operation and he was very much the kind of anti-hero not seen in movies like this

It's "slow" because it's plot-driven - and that isn't a bad thing.
This modernized trailer is terrific.
Maybe, but if you stick with it, the story speeds up and you can’t wait for the climax
Probably my favorite Modern Trailer.
Rest in Peace, William Friedkin.
One of the best movies I've seen
This video is......."absolute dynamite"....period!!!
Beautifully edited trailer. Really effective.
Best cop movie EVER.
+yes!
You betcha!!!!
"The French Connection" is a masterpiece but "Heat" is better.

Seriously, GREAT job!!! Popeye & Cloudy would love it

A masterpiece, and the birth of a vocation for many
Superb duo....Hackman and Scheider.
That was extremely well done.
Well done. Friedkin should see this.

Great ! Good job!
I would like to know what music is that.
What music is it in this trailer? Sounds very cool.
I’ll betcha that if some theater owner stuck this in with all the other junk trailers of current films they’d get more people asking when THIS film was opening instead of Transformers 6
Why not both? Gene Hackman in The French decepti-Connection 2: Revenge of the Autobots
Brilliant trailer
what's the music?
Hey there can you please tell me the soundtrack name in the background,awesome trailer,watched it a dozen times
The Subordinate. Al Pacino and Russell Crowe
What's the score?
not bad, the title typefont is a little weak
Where's the voice-over guy?
spock_elvis This one didn’t need it
Great movie but other than a few spots like the car chase it is slow. This trailer gives it some pep which is good.
Slow? 😂
