Jehan was the kingpin of international heroin smuggling at the end of the 1950s. Despite the fact that he was a national hero for the French and was never arrested for smuggling drugs, it is not surprising that he escaped prison.
He was also one of the first people to speak out against sexism, and his film The Girlfriend, now considered a classic of French cinema, made a big splash at Cannes. In terms of how it depicts women's lives and the role they play in society, it feels like a timeless film that still has something to say fifty years later.
At the 44th Annual Awards, the film won five Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director for William Friedkin, for its realism. Ernest Tidyman's script, which was also nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay, won the Oscar.
It is a blunt depiction of a divided society that is still alarmingly relevant to the present day. New Hollywood films, all of which focused on telling stories in novel ways, were sparked by its blunt and direct approach to social criticism.
I find a lot of the things in this movie really shocking, especially the brutal treatment of people who appear to be innocent. You have these cop characters who use racial epithets that will probably skeeve you out if you are not used to them. However, they also come across as resolute, stubborn, and willing to do whatever it takes to solve a case. Their language is so sleazy and foul-mouthed.
I like the fact that the movie makes you feel uneasy right away because you don't know what to make of these guys. These men are so violent that they are able to enter bars and mug low-income individuals, treating them as if they were not even human. The The french connection the higher the better is a film where this contrasts very well with the actions taken by the police.

According to an Instagram post from the American Society of Cinematographers, Owen Roizman, the Oscar-nominated cinematographer whose work was featured in The French Connection and The Exorcist, passed away at the age of 86.
Over the course of his sixty-plus-year career, Roizman was nominated for five Academy Awards, including one for The French Connection. From 1997 to 1998, he was the ASC president.
He has had a significant impact on my writing, and I always try to honor him in my writing.
The French Connection really shows that he was an excellent visual artist and had a great sense of style, and this movie has some really striking shots. I think he really made good use of the camera, so when you watch this movie, you'll see amazing shots in the dark that you wouldn't see in any other movie.
