The A To Z Of Michael Mann Public Enemies sees the return of Michael Mann with a typically stylish and finely-detailed gangster epic . To mark its release we've embarked an alphabetic jaunt through the tropes and traits that make him one of cinema's true auteurs. Welcome to Mikepedia.
Nobody shoots the night like Michael Mann and his coterie of world-class cinematographers, from Dante Spinotti to Dion Beebe to Emmanuel Lubezski, and the lurid, vibrant photography of Alex Thomson on The Keep. Much of Heat takes place at night – it's a grainy, textured movie that reflects the dreamlike, hazy atmosphere of LA when the sun goes down. But it's the advances in digital photography that have really allowed Mann to explore the dark heart of the night – think about the extra depth of field and eerie atmosphere of the sequence set to Audioslave's Shadow In The Sun in Collateral, or the astonishing night-time shoot-out at the end of Miami Vice, with its bright pink candyfloss clouds. And, of course, one of Public Enemies' standout sequences is another shoot-out set at nightfall, with Spinotti's digital cams picking up terrifyingly bright muzzle flashes.

Not a big fan of the Mann, whilst Heat, Collateral, The Insider & Manhunter are all great, Ali, Miami Vice (whichis a terrible, terrible movie) and Public Enemies really aren't all that, they are slow, dull and unfufilling. All well made, but just not all that great. Read More
