1971 brings us another year where you have to ask if someone wrote the winners down wrong, as the Academy goes with the cop thrillers and audiences decide they're not quite done with musicals. Best Picture goes to The French Connection, with Gene Hackman as Popeye Doyle, a cop on the edge in world he never made, fighting French drug traffickers with... racism and mostly inept surveillance? Doesn't seem great... Meanwhile, our Box Office Champion Fiddler on the Roof sings of Tradition, wishes to be a Rich Man, and audiences turned out Sunrise, Sunset. Which did Erin, Claire, and Dan connect with the most? Listen and find out!
