Gene Hackman as Popeye Doyle. What more can I say? No wonder its one of AFI's top 100 movies of all time and the result was five Oscars including Best Picture of 1971. This was the apex of Hollywood cimema that emerge from the 1970's.

The coolest car chase in screen history through the mean streets of Brooklyn is cimematic treat.
