About :
Two acting giants meet for the first time: #RobertDeNiro and #AlPacino are brought together by #MichaelMann in this neo-noir thriller - the first duel is all about talking, the second is about shooting. "Heat" is one of the most important films of the 20th century, but it wasn't even nominated for an Oscar in 1995. It actually tells a very simple story: a cop chases a gangster, but when the two look at each other, they see a mirror image. In his almost three-hour film, Michael Mann shows a Los Angeles like we've never seen it before: this merciless city, which is characterized by total individualization, shimmers gray and blue. "Heat" is first and foremost a film about loneliness in the modern age; the protagonists move through the streets, helpless and obsessed with something they cannot name. Both De Niro and Pacino lost sight of their goal a long time ago, but it is already too late to turn back. What else can you do? Watch sport on TV and cook a barbecue in the evening? The cop and the gangster are afraid of boredom and ordinariness, but they pay a high price for it. Michael Mann not only draws complex characters within a complex network of economics and crime, but he also shows a masculinity that many current discourses do not even want to acknowledge.
