During his career, Michael Mann has drawn a singular and innovative line within the Hollywood industry. 'The Last of the Mohicans', 'Heat', 'Revelations', 'Ali', 'Collateral', 'Miami Vice', and even 'Public Enemies', have reshuffled the cards of American cinema to the point of making Mann one of the most important filmmakers of the last thirty years. Born in 1943 in Chicago, Michael Mann made 'Thief', his first film, in 1981. He went on to revolutionize television writing with the series 'Two Cops in Miami' and, in 1995, released the thriller 'Heat', which put him well and truly on the map. Written by the highly regarded filmmaker and critic Jean-Baptiste Thoret, this illustrated examination of one of the most unique filmmakers of our time goes beyond the art, looking at everything that has led to Mann's style and success.
