    Apart from De Niro and Pacino's two main characters, there are so many side characters in this movie; Pacino's daughter-in-law, who tries to commit suicide, played by a very young Natalie Portman; the driver who is trying to stay on the straight and narrow path, but succumbs to temptation and ends up getting killed in the bank robbery, Van Kilmer's wife, played by the stunning Ashley Judd, etc. The film even has the LEGEND Wes Studi as a minor character from the police department.
    For me there are minor characters who feel far more rounded and genuine than main characters in lesser films. This is a testament to how good Heat is.

      I’d seriously like to know why you think this is a ‘masterpiece’. It’s a slightly above average heist movie with an admittedly iconic shootout scene. Aside from that it’s good. Not bad, certainly not great but good.

  • @gt-gu7rb

    The thing about that scene is it is arguably the greatest antagonist, protagonist meeting in cinema history. Indeed, why not have the two main adversaries meet and hash things out. Then go out and try and kill each other. It's a handshake on a deal of death. Brilliant filmmaking.

    DeNiro’s slight smirk and darting of his eyes to the left at the end of the scene is perfection. We don’t know it yet but he is going to drop his surveillance within minutes and that was his plan all along that evening.

    Back in 1992 I interviewed with a law firm, and the attorney interviewing me casually mentioned that his daughter was trying to make it as an actress (I figured he was just making small talk, etc.). Well, his daughter ended up being Amy Brenneman (Robert DeNiro's love interest in Heat). She would later star in top shows like NYPD Blue and Judging Amy, but her sensitive performance in Heat helped make an already incredible film even better.

    I think Mann was really influenced by Hong Kong directors like John Woo and Ringo Lam in this movie, it seems to be a trope that the story involves two larger than life characters, who are nearly identical as people, but only differ in career, and often played by show stealing actors like Chow Yun-Fat, Tony Leung Chiu-Wai, Danny Lee Sau-Yin,and Simon Yam.

    My all time favorite movie. In my personal opinion the only flaw was the end. I don’t feel like De Niros character would have died. I don’t think he would have taken the risk of trying to kill Pacino instead slipping away with the lead he already had

  • @xxcrysad3000xx
    @xxcrysad3000xx 3 дня назад +4

    Obviously Pacino is capable of more understated performances, my question to all the people saying "Al Pacino was too over the top" is this: since Michael Mann would've known about Pacino's range, why didn't he get that sort of subdued performance out of him, and would that have made it a better film?

    • @Renzy_YT
      @Renzy_YT  3 дня назад +4

      I agree, I feel like the over-the-top delivery was only ever used when he was trolling informants/criminals. There’s plenty of moments where his subtlety shined, like the scenes with his (soon-to-be) ex wife and anytime he’s speaking to other officers

He was always just a little high in every scene, according to Pacino. I think he may have mentioned it in the full version of the Q and A you show in this video.

    their conversation was foreshadowing to deniros end. perhaps he only let in to this outcome in to subtle to notice way…but maybe there was a resignation of sorts in tone that was meant to convey…id rather die then submit to the law. because his character was a true outlaw and lived by his rules only. respectable in several regards but ultimately too disagreeable in an orderly society, where tragedy (his death) was inevitably the final outcome.

    Weakest performances of each actor while still in their prime. Good performances because these 2 can mail in better scenes than most actors can give on their best day but to say these 2 roles are among their best is ridiculous. Heat is a good movie from a good director. That’s it.
