Rating: 5.0
Popeye Doyle Makes The Show
Voted as one of the top 10 films of all time, this DVD does not disappoint. Plenty of extra features, including some interesting film that did not make it into the final version, plus the great flick make this a must buy for serious film buffs.Hackman is perfect in the role, yet interestingly, according to the documentary, really struggled with some of the raw toughness that makes his performance so wonderful. Scheider is the perfect partner and Fernando Rey plays an excellent Frenchman.
