Ed Norton hopes cop genre film 'Pride and Glory' speaks to America's bigger issues

TORONTO - Edward Norton says his new movie about corrupt New York City cops might look like just another "genre" film but it has the potential to speak to broader issues in America.

"Pride and Glory" stars Norton as Det. Ray Tierney, who's investigating the deaths of four officers gunned down during what appears to be a routine drug bust.

Tierney's brother, played by Noah Emmerich, and brother-in-law, played by Colin Farrell, are also police officers. Eventually Tierney's investigation uncovers evidence that casts suspicion on both men.

To make matters worse, Tierney's father, played by Jon Voight, is also a cop - one who believes that police should take care of their own.
