Michael Mann's Heat is, arguably, one of the all-time great crime movies. It's a film that constantly invites new discussions and criticism. Bringing together two of the greatest actors of any generation - Al Pacino and Robert De Niro - for the first time ever on-screen. Heat is a triumph of realism. The film is as well known for its actors and story as it is its location, right in the heart of Los Angeles.
Film Critic, moderator, broadcaster and writer Scott Mantz joins the podcast to discuss this legendary crime film. He talks about living in L.A. and how the film surrounds his every day life, how many times he watches the film a year and why he is so impressed with Pacino's acting choices.
