Haven't seen any of his 60's films.
Seen French Connection II - 75 and Prophecy - 79' from the 70's. Like both and different genres, but I'd say FCII is the better film. I like it better than the first installment.
Have seen The Challenge - 82', 52 Pick Up - 86' and Dead Bang - 89' from the 80's. Again, like them all but I have a soft spot and fondness for The Challenge. Scott Glen is very good here. 52 Pick Up is full of interesting but sleazy characters, yet holds back on graphic violence, yet presents the violence that it does as ugly and nasty. Dead Bang is nifty little action thriller with an interesting performance by Don Johnson. The MPAA violence cuts are obvious.

He had a truly excellent run in the 60s.
60s: The Manchurian Candidate
70s: The Iceman Cometh
I haven’t seen any of his post-French Connection 2 work.
