2011年香港亚洲电影节参展动画导演延尚浩,继前作拿「猪」开玩笑,以变态到极点的智慧影射现实的残酷生活后,又一部极具批判性的作品,成为本届多伦多影展唯一入围亚洲动画,讽刺教会的虚伪。人是否一定忠奸分明?教会的领袖是否一定好人?在韩国一个小镇,有预言指水灾即将降临。为人敬重的教会长老,誓要将信念和希望带给信众。只要他们肯奉献金钱,就可以带领他们重建家园。然而,筹务经费的计划,却被一名声名欠佳的镇民质疑。二人展开一场「形象」之战,背后却各有目的。。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.。
