• Information found: Police Film (Police Film (Cop Movie, Investigative Film, Law Enforcement Drama, Police Procedural, Policier). Cop movies emphasize, or focus on, the policeman rather than the criminal; cover quite an extensive range, but as a rule they may be subdivided into three general sections: cops in uniform or policemen on the beat; the police commissioner, inspector, detective, or lieutenant in Homicide, the Drug Squad, or any other section of a Police Department; and the sheriff in townships or small rural communities carrying out the same duties as his counterparts in the cities. Subcategories: Buddy-Cop Films; Copper Films; Federal Agent Films; Police Comedies; Police Department Films; Police Detective Films; Sheriff Films) Copper Films (deal with the uniformed representatives of the law: men on the beat, rookie policemen or patrolmen carrying out their functions. It is, generally speaking, a less glamorized role than that of the police detective) Police Department Films (A few police films do not place their emphasis on catching the criminal; instead, they try to show the working day or routine happenings inside a police precinct; present the many problems encountered in the efficient running of the department, or the corruptible elements that may exist therein)
