Which Best Picture winner stars Gene Hackman as a cop named Popeye Doyle?

Answer The French Connection

The iconic role of narcotics cop Jimmy "Popeye" Doyle was first offered to Steve McQueen. He turned it down because he'd already played a cop in 1968's 'Bullitt', another film with a memorable car chase.
