Wanted: One game with wicked policemen and one strange Firebird-release.

Some years ago I was really into looking through old diskimages, and there were two releases that came to mind that i'm looking for. The first probably way easier to find than the other.

The first game is a game which I can't remember the gameplay of, but I remember one screen beeing filled with loads of small, nicely animated and policemen moving around on the screen. I believe the policemen wore hats of old english model, that their uniforms was blue and that they were moustached. Would love to see it again. Any clues?

The second one could be any Firebird game released between 1984-87. What's special with it is that it includes an interlaced Firebird-logo made in (what I believe is) three color, expanded and interlaced sprites. Really want to find this since I think it's the first example of graphic interlace done on the C-64. Never seen anything prior to this.

Hollywood or Bust by John Ferrari (who made Summer Camp and Winter Camp) was the first one, thanks a lot! Now, let's just hope there is someone who knows his way around the Firebird titles aswell so I can find find the one with the wicked interlace-screen.

You rock, Spacerat. I firmly believe this to be the wrong game, although with the right intro. It's more than possible that the intro in question was used on several titles during this time, 85-86'ish. I shall rip it out and put it up somewhere.
