Charming Classic - “Heat”
“Society invites the crime and criminals accept the invitation.” - Vikrant Parsai Michael Mann's Heat exists in the memory as a remarkable heist film, a standout cops n' robbers thriller, which influenced several quality, crime-pictures following on from it. Matthew Vaughn, Ben Affleck and Christopher Nolan, directors of Layer Cake, The Town and The Dark Knight respectively, admit to their films having been inspired by Heat in varying ways. It can be argued that at the time, it redefined the action-thriller genre. It revised an almost decade-long formula of somewhat gimmicky, machismo fuelled, 80's action cinema, by delivering high octane spectacle, that relied upon sheer authenticity.
