Marcus, thanks, but what centers the shot for me is the very creepy copy on the poster of state police (where the post title comes from). It has a quite disturbing combination of put-on cool that doesn't disguise an attitude of brutal swagger. Not cool.
Uuuh - now I got it. Only rarely watching movies I did not immediately identify that those were cops and police cars. Indeed, that is a kind of machismo behaviour that definitely should not be glorified. Here the press would crucify any attempt of such false glorification.
Marcus, it gets worse. The poster isn't for a movie. It's marketing for Ford, promotion for Ford's "Police Interceptor" version of the Crown Vic sedan. Nice, huh?
Well, culture in the U.S. is significantly different in quite a number of aspects, a very unbroken relationship with power, force and weapons among them.
No company here (besides weaponry dealers for a very limited public) would dare to advertise in this way. Maybe only once to get more attention through being bashed by the wholy press together with the majority of politicians...
