10 Movie Maverick Cops Who Just Didn't Give A Damn
6. Jimmy 'Popeye' Doyle - The French Connection
A classic example of the maverick cop, he's practically one of the forefathers of them.
Excessive use of force, police brutality, 'Popeye' ticks all the boxes and then ticks them again. He's a loud presence that just doesn't give a damn, he'll bust someone even when he's wearing a Santa outfit.
He's a relentless man. Even behind the wheel of a car he's a maverick, chasing down a train whilst uncaringly crashing into other cars, as long as he gets the crook.
