Police
officers as we know them came into being around
the same time as motion pictures. From the infancy of
moviemaking, lawmen of various types were popular subjects.
Bounty hunters, sheriffs, private eyes, detectives and street
officers
—
often portrayed by some of Hollywood s biggest names
—
have been depicted in every conceivable way, in every kind of film.
This critical-historical survey of law enforcement in American
cinema examines the police in their many incarnations with
emphasis on how lawmen are portrayed and how this portrayal
changes over time. Each film discussed reveals something about the
role of law enforcement within society
—
some subtly comment on
social conditions, racial issues or government interventions; others
deal with major historical events such as the Great Depression,
World War II and the McCarthy trials. Genres from science fiction
to spaghetti western are represented. Films examined include Easy
Street
(1917),
a nominal comedy starring Charlie Chaplin; Star
Packer, a
1934
John Wayne film; The Maltese Falcon
(1941)
with
Humphrey
Bogart;
Dirty Harry, a
1971
Clint Eastwood classic; Leslie
Nielsen s spoof The Naked Gun
(1988);
1993 s Tombstone featuring
Kurt Russell; and a great many others.
Writer M. RAY
LUTI
was a law enforcement officer for over
20
years. He holds degrees in film, electronic media, and mass
communication. Also the author of The American Martial Arts Film
(2004),
he lives in Southern California.
