This very Kafka-esque film is Keaton's response to the Fatty Arbuckle scandal.[citation needed] Even though the central character's intentions are good, he cannot win, no matter how inventively he tries. He gets into various scraps with police officers throughout the film. Eventually, he unwittingly throws a bomb into a police parade and ends up being chased by a horde of cops.
At the end of the film, Keaton's character locks up the cops in the police station. However, the girl he is trying to woo disapproves of his behavior and gives him the cold shoulder. Therefore, he unlocks the police station and is immediately pulled in by the cops. The film ends with the title "The End" written on a tombstone with Keaton's pork pie hat propped on it.
One of Keaton's most iconic and brilliantly-constructed short films, Cops was deemed "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant" by the United States Library of Congress and selected for preservation in their National Film Registry in 1997.。出品单位: 湖北凤舞天下数字传媒有限公司本片以全国公安系统二级英模、湖北省通城县公安局禁毒大队民警杨雄为原型,讲述缉毒民警杨雄深入虎穴与贩毒分子作斗争的英雄故事……。电视机裡播放著录影带桥段,一段来自人称「美国怪物杀人魔」亨利史塔克维瑟的惊悚独白,承诺暴力时代即将来临。这一夜,广播宣布他的死亡消息后,整座城市随即笼罩在暴力与恐惧之下。一场事故,让一群亨利口中的「孩子」如同野兽出柙,拖著活生生的躯壳,依循脑海中的声音,发了疯似地横行于世界各处製造「混乱」。一副又一副的面具之下,藏匿的本性蠢蠢欲动著,残酷不堪的冷血举动就是要让这世界不.得.安.宁.。。
