Arguably the greatest American crime film ever made. 

Gene Hackman stars as Detective Popeye Doyle, who catches the trail of a huge shipment of French heroin. With partner Roy Scheider, Hackman dogs drug-kingpin Fernando Rey through the concrete jungle—highlighted by a brain-jangling car chase that still hasn’t been topped. -American Cinematheque
