147: The French Connection | USA

In the month of July, we are celebrating Evidence Locker’s third birthday and our 150th episode. In the spirit of celebration, we decided on a blockbuster theme. To kick things off, we look into the true crime case behind the film, The French Connection, which won the Academy Award for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Film Editing, and Best Writing in 1971. The French Connection was a real-life case, during which a team of investigators busted a drug-smuggling ring into the USA in the early 1960s.
