Wiki.

Whistling Smith is a 1975 short documentary film directed by Marrin Canell and Michael J. F. Scott for the National Film Board of Canada. It was produced for the NFB's Pacificanada series, which aired on CBC-TV in early 1975.The film is a revealing portrait of a tough cop with a big heart. Vancouver Police Department Sergeant Bernie "Whistling" Smith walks the beat on the city's Downtown Eastside, the hang-out of petty criminals and down-and-outers. His policing style is unorthodox; to many drug users and prostitutes, he's more than a cop—he's a counsellor and a friend. In the year that he's been in charge of this beat, crime has dropped by over forty per cent.
