The TVI Take
1971 Best Picture winner. Gene Hackman's Popeye Doyle pursues a French heroin smuggling ring through New York City.
High cognitive demands from the procedural complexity and moral ambiguity of the protagonist. Educational value from the real narcotics case and 1970s NYC. The car-versus-elevated-train chase is the greatest action sequence ever filmed.
