For the first retrospective of 2019, I wanted to take the Aftertaste into realms it hadn’t been in. Yes we have covered a variety of franchises and film series. But one thing we haven’t done is focus on the resume of one filmmaker and one filmmaker only. Who better to do this with than the master of the ‘ultimate man film’, Michael Mann. With a wide variety of films and a meticulous style that has attempted to be replicated but has never been duplicated, Mann presents quite a set of films to look at. In order to do so, we once again brought in Michael Guarnieri from the Hannibal Lecter Retrospective to do what he had originally contacted me to do to begin with. A Michael Mann Retrospective.
Though they were both Oscar winners and known as the two best actors of their generation, Robert DeNiro and Al Pacino had yet to share the screen in 1995. Leave it up to the Mann to finally make it happen in the remake to his own pilot LA Takedown called Heat.
It is one of the most popular movies ever made. So how do we feel about what Mann, DeNiro, Pacino, and Kilmer (?) bring to the $60 million budgeted film, and rate it based on how Mannly it is. Not really. I just wanted to insert another pun involving the namesake of this retrospective.
Download below, and come back next week as not only will we continue this series, we will also conclude a long in the making one as well.
Heat (1995) (?/10, ?/10, ?/10)
