Revision as of 01:15, 18 November 2011
Popeye Doyle is a rather obscure sequel to The French Connection and French Connection II. Made for television it was originally intended as a pilot for a television series about the further adventures of New York City Police Detective James "Popeye" Doyle. Written and produced by Richard Di Lello (Writer of Colors) and with Eddie Egan as technical adviser the series was never purchased. It was released on NBC as a television movie in September of 1986. Ed O'Neill took over the role of Popeye and did good work. He choose to play the character in a lighter vein instead of the heavy and intense portrayal that made Gene Hackman famous. Unfortunately the movie was never released on VHS or DVD. It can be seen occasionally late at night on the Fox Movie Channel. This film was also the first screen role for veteran actor J.K. Simmons.
The following firearms can be seen in Popeye Doyle:
Smith & Wesson Model 36
Popeye Doyle (Ed O'Neill) carries a round butt Smith & Wesson Model 36 as does his partner, Det. Tony Parese (Matthew Laurance).
Browning BDA
Auram Bardas / The Weasel (Nicholas Kadi) uses a Browning BDA towards the end of the movie.
1911A1 Government
Mossad agent Itan Kellerman (George De La Pena) carries what appears to be be a military issue Model 1911A1 Government complete with the Parkerized finish. At the beginning of the movie Doyle and his partner take-down a couple thugs who rob a deli. During the shoot-out one of them appear to be using a M1911A1 as well.
Walther P38
Auram Bardas / The Weasel for half the film is a suppressed Walther P38.
Uzi
An Uzi Submachine gun is used by Marta Spinoza (Alexandra Innes) who comes after Doyle and Parese. (Alexandra Innes is credited as "Marta Rodriguez," but always referred to as "Marta Spinoza." She's the only "Marta" in the film, however.)
Unidentified Pistol
While searching the apartment of a murder victim Doyle (Ed O'Neill) finds a small pistol in a drawer.
Auram Bardas / The Weasel's Arsenal
