Ethan Megenis-Clarke Just shows how timeless the movie is, and also film is better than digital cameras

it depends. film cameras, of course, gives you that cinematic tone, grainy look and as an audience, you can immediately feel intimacy with the film. But film cameras don't have a depth of field and in the low light digital cameras are way better. You can change film speed, of course, analog cameras can pull multiple stops but it will affect image contrast. Anyways, there is no better only what you desire, what you need and how masterful you are. At end of the day it's about the craft and your vision not the cameras.

A good comparison is another Michael Mann movie: collateral. It was shot entirely on digital and also in LA and creates a very different look and feel via the coldness of digital vs the warmth of film as seen in Heat.

fuck yah, I am still watching: "take off your shirt!".

I agree. It has more to do with those behind the camera because some of the best cinematographers of our time have switched to digital, and while it's allowed them to be more flexible in how they light and shoot, the quality of work and image is just as fantastic as when they used film. Examples being Roger Deakins, Bruno Delbonnel and Emmanuel Lubezki.

Graveyard Jim they recorded the shootout audio live while firing blanks. They intended to overdub afterwards, but the sound echoing off buildings was just so good.

Sweet piece of trivia. Thanks

Allen Tucker It goes even further : The studio thought the gunshots sounded to hard an loud to be considered real and wanted Michael Mann to use stock gunshots used in every movie at that time instead ... Luckily Michael Mann refused to change the sounds , he even threatened to quit if the studio went through with the bland stock sounds so they decided to give in ... and the rest is history

This movie is so fucking loud, and it's great

Yeah, if you're been in the army, you would question the action scene in this movie, that it's really good for a movie, but in real life with those guns the calliber they use would go through those cars like paper, and those cops hidding behind the ambulance would be dead if they weren't protected by the plot armor.

For his first feature film acting gig, Hank nailed it.

HAHA! I wonder if he used his Moe face to hit on her!

@solidstripe No he`s right....( 1995) was when it was released.

@Ryan 1995

True. I don't know what it it. Right from the second I saw Robert De Niro get off that train, something told me this was going to be really really good.

Excellent comment. I felt the same way. Mann is boundlessly talented, on par with Kubrick.

@@Scottdrruryiphone finally, someone praising mann with the confidence i wish i had xD. cheers!

Agreed

@@maskedcrusade8987 The plot is pretty messy, I didn't like it.

+Meister Film Also, I would love to hear you discuss The Sacrifice by Tarkovsky or maybe Stalker.

+Meister Film Have you seen "The Mirror" by Tarkovsky? That's one to analyze, I think. "Stalker" is really good, though, and so is "The Sacrifice." But "The Mirror" is my favorite film of all time.

+Christopher Spitzka I have! I love every film he's made, but I have not seen "Andrei Rublev" yet. Personal favourites are The Sacrifice and Solaris. And The Mirror... and Stalker... and Ivan's Childhood.............

He's criminally underrated. I didn't hear of him until I saw "The Sacrifice" -- which I only saw fairly recently. Considering how much I love good arthouse films, I can't believe how much we have traded in the poets like Tarkovsky for a whole bunch of illegibly choppy editing. The reason I brought up "The Mirror" is because its lack of conventional plot demands more analysis on Tarkovsky's stylistic choices. Then again, "Stalker" could also be fantastic for an analysis. Merry Christmas!

So criminally underrated.... It is sad that someone like that isn't the most well known director of today. Truly a genius filmmaker.

Shame Moby turned out to be such a wet fart in reality.

Brah Sumatra 📽️

What people don't know is that Heat is a remake, It is almost a shot for shot, word for word remake of a made for TV movie called LA Takedown. Also directed by Michael Mann.

The greatest "none Mob related" crime drama ever made.

Hahahaahah.... Hilarious final scene. Over dramatic constantly, nice try though!

This one and Goodfellas, my two favorites.

Good video, Nerdwriter. By the way: Thanks for not using Arial!

I see tons of top 100 lists without this in them. Personally, it's comfortably inside the top 10, maybe 5.

now that you mention. I don't recall Heat on any top list. Tragic loss is our gain.

Flame and Citron was great Swedish film. Heat is that good. It's the whole work, the long shots and score. You are missing the point.

I like how he took his TV! 😂 😂 😂

What thumbnail did u expect

Para mí punto de vista los imperdonables los intocables buenos muchachos Titanic y fuego contra fuego de 1995 son las mejores de los años ,90

The version used in the film is found on his later album, “I Like to Score”

Lieutenant Prick Joker?

Lol... Waynegrow

After breaking the character's nose, DeNiro commands him to look at him as the bullet exits his gun. You temporarily lose your vision when your nose is broken. He wants him to see that bullet that will kill him. Reminds one a bit of the scene in 'Scarface' when Pacino executes the drug dealer in front of the Miami hotel. Much in the same manner, the victim will see that bullet that will kill him.

@@DrPhil-jp5rv Hahaha

ah well

Playing gta v and watching this film had that flavor

@@Rusty-me1mj Michael is inspired by deniro they look very similar

@@Rusty-me1mj Yeah, the “Blitz Play” mission in GTA V was inspired by the intro robbery from HEAT..

It's not underrated at all. It's highly regarded as an excellent film.

@@christopherkotsopoulos701 oscars had 0 nominations for this. It's a shame

@@Aman-nk5uq The Academy has always been clueless, Heat was ahead of it time

So can I lol

Well said mate. Wouldn’t say HEAT is underrated however, the best Crime-Drama film nonetheless!

You watched and appreciated Heat aged 10❓️❓️👏😂

I watched it just now for the first time, and man, its so same feeling here! I was like, I liked this movie so much, but why!? Now I can atelast express why i loved it!

3 hours and not a second of wasted film...

And again

because 100 times just aint enough....now hurry up.....hurry i say,and "DON'T WASTE MY MOTHERFUCKIN TIME!"

Heat or scarface? 🤔

@@fLightTakesFlight Heat is a movie for men, Scarface is for teenagers.

@@rickyspanish8373 still great acting to be appreciated in Scarface

good idea

Arian beic only built 4 Cuban lynx

I'd rather see him cover Big Trouble, Little Chinatown

yeah that would be Nice

+Jlm Butler That is a great idea!

Maybe something for the patreon guys? That'd be awesome.

My belief is that Hanna held McCauley's hand because he knew that he was losing a spiritual brother that understood him and his life more deeply than anyone in his past, or anyone he would meet in the future.

Yes, I completely agree. Basically, Hanna & McCauley where two people who took their professions incredibly serious (at a level that few ever achieve). Two sides of the same coin. In this case, one chose to become a detective and the other a professional thief.

dotstarss Have you ever seen his video on Drive? It's a pretty fucking good video on Drive.

Mind-blowing it was

I just watched it for the first time & I wondered to myself how the hell have I never watched this? I only knew about through random comments. I’m about to be 30. I feel like watching this back in the day would of blew my mind. I still loved it though. I appreciate certain elements more than I would of back then since I’m older now though.

Imo Scarface isn't in their league. Great film but Godfather Goodfellas and Heat are masterpieces

nah bro. fuck those meatball ass films. heat. pure style. deniro owns a sushi restaurant

Francis ford Coppola didn't like heat though ☹️

Both Heat & Scarface aren’t on Godfather or Goodfellas level

Heat has cool style and scenes, but at the end of the day the plot wasn't very realistic and the characters were mostly assholes that I couldn't care much for

You watched this movie in theatre?? Amazing

@@Aman-nk5uq Yes and with my dad great times I tell you. Nothing like spending time with your dad.

Look for movies from smaller independent studios A24, Bleecker Street, Bold Films, etc.

It's all boring. Hollywood is toilet today. Shouldn't even be called Hollywood.

What I got from this - Nerdwriter is stating that Mann's use of style and realism modernized the noir genre, while still acknowledging and respecting the classic tropes. And the conclusion was meant to explain the film's success in doing what noir films are supposed to do: show both the bad and good sides of society and examine how closely related they actually are.

Thank you.

Yeah, it is rather convoluted & unnecessarily complex. Shouldn't need to view something multiple times over to get the end message; this is a fail in my book.

L.A. November 2019

It's too indirectly stated, but he is getting at the thematic structure of private eye(more so than police detective/police procedural) stories. The classics almost always submerge the protagonist in the filth and corruption of rich and poor alike, from the wealthy to the petty thugs and official lackeys they pay off and corrupt, to the point that they become morally indistinguishable. The private eye, though, maintains his moral code, dragging himself out of the muck of both high and low places against great difficulty and often great temptation, back into what passes for a "normal" life in the ocean of corruption that is "the way we live now." Think of the end of The Maltese Falcon, ,where Bogie turns away the offer of love and turns Elsa in. There may be no one who appreciates the private eye's journey and harsh resolve but he himself -- in fact most of the people he meets want to kill or corrupt him or keep him silent. But his experience is that there is no higher moral ground held by anyone, and that he has to craft his own moral identity. Because he can look to no one for guidance or approval. All around him, rich or poor, respected or despised ... they're not so far apart, are they? Morally corrupt or easily corruptible, holding to no code but self advantage. This video is much too indirect in not elaborating on these themes common to the genre. But he is on the right track and not making things up or trying to sound mysterious or more clever than he really is. The underside of life really isn't that different from its glossy surfaces or supposed heights. There are worms in tuxedos just as much as in filthy backstreets. Like the two main characters in Heat, they are two side of the same coin. What would have really been interesting is if the video creator would have talked about what that coin really is a bit more. He hints at the truer and more deep theme of men being unable to define themselves except as what they do, and how that hollows out their souls. It's lonely to only be something that does, never something that knows much else about how to be. Virtually every major character in the movie is maladjusted. Some, like the two leading women, are trying to construct lives, even if it means by cheating on their partners with other men. The men hardly know how to even try. Our robber takes a stab at it, but can't hold on. He slips into vengeance. Our cop gives up almost from the start and all too readily. Both men have found no true solace in life, but can each recognize in each other the frenetic, meticulous doing, the same driven loneliness and turning away from an inner life..
