policier /ˌpɒlɪˈsjeɪ / /pɔlisje/nounA film based on a police novel, portraying crime and its detection by police: a comic strip policier [as modifier]: he spends his time watching European grade-B policier videos...- But the film is less a policier than a post-Foucault case study of the criminal as social transgressor.
- This explanation was really unnecessary; his debts to both films are obvious, including Melville's insistence that the policier is the only remaining vehicle for tragedy - at least for a French film-maker.
- Expect is an ensemble policier, an uncommonly sunny film with urban chumminess that recalls contemporary Japanese television serials.
Origin French, from roman policier 'detective novel'. |
