Cops on Film: Part II

In this second part of a 2-parter about police on film and in TV, Daniel looks at the ways media portrayals of police have impacted the way we look at crime, the justice system, and society itself. Being the latter half, Daniel starts around the time of The French Connection and makes his way up through the days of big-budget Hollywood blockbusters Die Hard and Robocop, to today, where on-the-street footage capturing police violence has shown the public that the police aren't just there to get the bad guys.
