LAB CLASSICS: HEAT (4K RESTORATION)
Coinciding with the release of his new biopic Ferarri, two of our favorite classics by American auteur Michael Mann return to our cinema: his striking debut feature Thief and a blistering new 4K restoration of his epic crime saga Heat.
Taking inspiration from the late Chicago police detective Charlie Adamson – who killed the actual Neil McCauley in a shootout in 1963 – Heat was the culmination of years of research by Mann resulting in its depth and range of characters and choreography of action. With its epic scale and stunning performances from Pacino, De Niro, Val Kilmer, Tom Sizemore, Ashley Judd, Amy Brenneman, Diane Venora, Natalie Portman and Jon Voight, Heat is as incendiary as it was 25 years ago.
