The classic 1971 film The French Connection won five Oscars, including one for Gene Hackman as the drug-busting detective Jimmy “Popeye” Doyle. What’s less well known is that it was based on the real life case - told in Robin Moore’s gripping bestseller - of the world’s largest heroin smuggling operation.
