Technically no, since Hackman's character in this is named Edward "Brill" Lyle, and his character in Conversation secrète (1974) is named Harry Caul. Similarities between the two characters have been acknowledged, such as their jackets and workshops. Though given he's living off the grid, he could have changed his name several times.
Labor lawyer Robert Dean (Will Smith) finds himself being chased by rogue U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) agents looking for a tape that shows politician Thomas Reynolds (Jon Voight) murdering Congressman Phillip Hammersley (Jason Robards) because Hammersley doesn't support a Telecommunications Security and Privacy Act that would expand domestic surveillance powers of law enforcement agencies. As Dean's life begins to fall apart, the only one who can help him is former government operative turned surveillance expert Edward Lyle (Gene Hackman).
Enemy of the State is based on an original script by American screenwriter David Marconi.
The unrated version of Enemy of the State that has been released on DVD features several extended plot scenes but one has to decide on one's own whether they are an enrichment for the movie or not. But there are also some new scenes that feature some more cursing or erotic.
