My favorite quote from the movie is the "I'd rather be a lamppost in New York than the President of France!" one.

I have never seen the second French Connection, although I'm inclined to disagree. Those first two Godfather movies were fucking amazing, both in their own way, and honestly the second Godfather movie is probably the best sequel I've ever seen.

The second is so over the top and awesome. As a film major, you need to watch the film because that is how onscreen vengeance is done. Also it has Gene Hackman as the biggest asshole ever captured on tape not named George W. Bush.

Also, my usenet quota resets back to 15GB tomorrow.
