EWB 403 KILL OR BE KILLED THE FRENCH CONNECTION

 Rennie and I are back with another installment of Kill or Be Killed, our exploration of crime films from the 70’s and early 80’s.  With the passing of Gene Hackman, this episode is somewhat in memoriam of a great, prolific actor.  THE FRENCH CONNECTION established Hackman as a force in Hollywood as well as heralding in a new wave of darkly realistic crime movies. Intro:    “All the Dark Things” – Mike Hill Outro: “Black Magic Woman” – Santana
