A gas turbine engine component includes a wall that provides an exterior surface and an interior flow path surface. A film cooling hole extends through the wall and is configured to fluidly connect the interior flow path surface to the exterior surface. The film cooling hole has a pocket that faces the interior flow path and extends substantially in a longitudinal direction. The film cooling hole has a portion downstream from the pocket and is arranged at an angle relative to the longitudinal direction and extends to the exterior surface.
