About this episode
ONE HEAT MINUTE is the podcast examining Michael Mann's 1995 "magnum opus" HEAT minute by minute. It's the 87th minute (1:26:00-1:27:00) - host Blake Howard joins film critic in North Shore Movies, Philadelphia Weekly, Metro, The Village Voice, Time Out New York, RogerEbert.com, and Spliced Personality - Sean Burns. Blake and Sean kick off by discussing his incredible article THE CHASE IS THE THING: ON MICHAEL MANN'S "MANHUNTER," "HEAT" AND "PUBLIC ENEMIES" (which was published at RogerEbert.com) that outlines that Heat is the "purest expression of the filmmaker’s pet themes, played out with a doomy grandeur." Blake and Sean then discuss mad people lining Greenwich Village streets on Heat's opening night muttering the mantra "Al and Bob. Al and Bob. Al and Bob"; we talk about the beautiful strange of Pacino's performance especially why he can't appropriately unwrap and eat gum in a timely fashion and then finally how odd it was to see these two New York guys on a poster with a tagline "An L.A Crime Epic."
