I think it was called, "The French Connection"

Got the Academy Award for best picture, and Gene Hackman got the Academy Award for best actor.
Story about police corruption is not new..
....The story is the same, the actors and events are different...... Every few years there is another story about this problem....One advance in catching bad cops is the cameras that are on the cop's clothing and in the police vehicles. These cameras have caught a lot of bad guys as well as bad cops...Sometimes the people walking around have cameras too. We saw that last month with a cop knelling on someone who was killed.
...That cop was Derek Chauvin, who was the officer charged with killing George Floyd. That happened on.. May 25, 2020.
