SCREENING IN THE BERNARD OSHER FOUNDATION AUDITORIUM
“As with his other works, [Mann] binds sound, music and pictures into one hypnotic triaxial cable and plugs it right into your brain. He makes this almost-three-hour experience practically glide by.”
170 minutes. Not Rated. Directed by Michael Mann. In English. DCP.
This screening is part of a series of films benefiting artists and arts workers impacted by the Los Angeles wildfires. Proceeds will be donated to the LA Arts Community Wildfire Relief Fund.
A stellar cast sizzles in Heat, a taut psychological drama about an obsessive detective and a brilliant thief whose fates are linked in the aftermath of a high-stakes securities heist.
A brilliant L.A. cop (Al Pacino) follows the trail from a deadly armed robbery and becomes fixated on a deadly but equally brilliant master thief (Robert DeNiro) and his crew (Val Kilmer and Jon Voight) who are taking Los Angeles to the cleaners, Tom Sizemore, Ashley Judd and Natalie Portman also co-star.
Heat also includes one of the most spectacular shoot-outs in film history as DeNiro and Kilmer rip through downtown Los Angeles with both guns blazing.
