French Connection's "Picking Your Feet In Poughkeepsie" Line Explained
"Picking your feet in Poughkeepsie" is one of The French Connection's most memorable quotes, but what does the bizarre line actually mean? Director William Friedkin has directed several movies that are considered classics. The most famous would be 1973's The Exorcist, a possession movie based on a true story that is regarded as one of the greatest horror movies of all time — though Friedkin disputes it's a horror film. His follow-up Sorcerer is a grueling reimaging of The Wages Of Fear and is a nail-biting suspense thriller. While it was positioned to be a major success in 1977, it was thoroughly beaten at the box office by a certain underdog called Star Wars.
