THE FRENCH CONNECTION

Two NYPD detectives working in the Narcotics Bureau uncover a heroin smuggling operation with ties to Marseilles, France. What begins as routine surveillance quickly spirals into a dangerous international pursuit. Despite their best efforts, tracking down the smugglers and bringing their elusive ringleaders to justice becomes a maddening game of cat and mouse.



Craig and Elisabeth end June Hackman month talking about dirty cops, blind snipers, 1970s New York and the movie “The French Connection” on this week’s Matinee Heroes!
