Michael Mann's Heat

[Triadkd]

I just saw the movie and thought it was great. Does anyone know a good torrent site where I could download the soundtrack.

 

[StrainedEyes]

Why not go pay for it?

 

[Edd Extraordinaire]

Movie is amazing, as was the soundtrack.

 

[Shuley]

very good film, glad i saw it in the theater

 

[ChrisBaleBatman]

I need to see it again.

I remember watching it as a kid, but I need to watch again.

THERE'S a novel idea....like, helping to register anonymous love for a piece of art?
Actually, taking steps to encourage artistic creators (and their benefactors) to, keep GOING?


F***ing pirates will eventually ruin the world.

WTF! The soundtrack is almost 12 years old! Chill out! I could understand if he was going to download something that just came out.

I somehow think he is being sarcastic

A great movie...in my Top 15. I just saw it again recently and enjoyed it just as much as the first time. It has a long running time but I never feel it. Great performances all around and excellent cinematography as I come to expect from any movie by Mann. De Niro's character is one of my all-time favorites.

 

[Killgore]

Moby did most of the soundtrack. You can find three of the songs on I Like To Score.

 

[Carmine Falcone]

Didn't like it at first. Second viewing was much better. I guess I was not in the mood for it the first viewing. DeNiro + Pacino = Gold.

The final shootout is one of the most exciting pieces of action in cinema history. Mann knows how to make it look real. Everything from the frantic camerawork to the actual sound (those rifles sound like they really would) makes it feel like you're right there.

the film has two of the most embarassing editing/cross-cutting errors i've ever seen in an "auteur" type film.

 

[JTStarkiller]

Seen the movie three times. Easily Mann's best. The coffee shop scene is easily worth the price of admission, but I had heard somewhere that they never met for that scene (that it was shot separately). If this is true, it's still a cool scene, but please tell me the person who told me this is full of it.

My favorite thing about Heat is that I worked at a theater when it came out and it's 3 hour length meant less sweeping for me.

I can understand that. My favorite types of movies were stuff like Seabiscuit, because they're not only long, but the theaters were filled with old people, who never buy anything.

 

[Wilhelm-Scream]

oh Hell yeah

In the fullscreen version, there has to be seperate shots for each character, as opposed to one full long aspect shot where they both appear in the same frame in the widescreen one. So yes, they DID film the scene together.

Explain please.

i havent watched it in a few years but i rember when i watche it, these two things jumped off the screen for me

1)in the scene where Pacino goes to talk to the snitch at the junkyard, they must've not had enough coverage.
At one point there's an over the shoulder shot (of the snitch, i think). It doesnt match with the reverse shot, because you can see the guys jaw still moving (like, talking) even though he's supposed to be just listening. And you can tell its the same shot from earlier- but taken by a different camera. something like that.

2)much later on, when Pacino stops back at, i think it's a hotel room, he goes out to the balcony. It's another over the shoulder shot- a panorama of the city as he looks back and forth. but its not Pacino. It's a REALLY bad body double. he's taller and his hair's different. And i'm not sure, but I think the pan itself was REALLY wooden too, like too quick/mechanical.
(but maybe the VHS was doing a pan-n-scan?).

Now, they aren't like "old kung fu movie" bad- but for them to be in a film from a guy like Mann, i thought they were pretty sloppy (but funny).

 

[SolidSnakeMGS]

^ Thanks. I'll look out for it when I watch the movie for the hundredth time. Can't believe I didn't notice it if its as bad as you say.

 

[maxwell's demon]

well. i was a bit of a prick at the time (film school and all)

 

[The Shape]

This is a great film, and as someone said, the coffe shop scene made the movie.

Great stuff.
