Shaft (1971) -- (Movie Clip) Open, Title Song The totally excellent opening by director Gordon Parks featuring the title character (Richard Roundtree, flashing his private-eye badge) cruising Times Square, nearing its sleazier days, to Isaac Hayes' Academy Award-winning title song, from Shaft, 1971.

French Connection, The (1971) -- (Movie Clip) Open, Marseilles Brief credits then a quick introduction of Charnier (Fernando Rey) in Marseilles, and the stalking of a victim by the mostly unseen Nicoli (Marcel Bozzuffi), from William Friedkin's The French Connection, 1971.

French Connection, The (1971) -- (Movie Clip) Popeye's Here!

French Connection, The (1971) -- (Movie Clip) You Like Santa Claus? Outrageous first scene for Popeye Doyle (Gene Hackman) playing Santa and Cloudy Russo (Roy Scheider) posing as a hot-dog man, and chasing a suspect in Brooklyn, in William Friedkin's The French Connection, 1971.
