01 The French Connection Remastered 1971.

Jimmy Popeye Doyle and Buddy Russo are Brooklyn based NYPD narcotics detectives who

often work undercover. They make a lot of arrests, but they are all of small time

users, busting who which makes no dent in the NYC drug trade. While the two are out

for drinks one night at a club, Popeye sees a table of people which to him doesn't

seem right, the people who include an unknown big spender out of his league next to

known organized drug criminals. Just for fun, they decide to tail the big spender

and his girl. Beyond the couple's obvious suspicious activity, they find out that

they are Sal and Angie Boca, small time crooks who own and operate a Brooklyn

newsstand luncheonette. Based on other evidence including information from one of

their snitches of rumours of a major drug shipment entering New York, Popeye and

Buddy get the official albeit reluctant OK from their superior to surveil Sal to

find if he leads them to the incoming drug shipment, that surveillance including

authorization for wiretaps. That surveillance does show that Sal is connected and

that the probable persons selling the drugs are two Frenchmen having recently

arrived in the city. It then becomes a game of cat and mouse as Sal and the two

Frenchmen, Alain Charnier and his muscle Pierre Nicoli, are aware that they are

being tailed, the two Frenchmen in particular who are willing to go to any lengths

to protect their investment, estimated street worth of approximately $32 million.

Popeye, Buddy and their third, Mulderig, who has an antagonistic relationship with

Popeye due to Mulderig's belief that Popeye's police work led to the death of a

colleague, have to learn when the lead is not the three men but the locale of the

drugs themselves.
