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.
Mann’s always had a good eye for colour coding – remember the sterile, antiseptic whites of Manhunter, or the menace of the green-hued driving range scene in The Insider? But he must be a closet Chelsea fan, for Blue is definitely the colour when it comes to everything else. Mann’s films are soaked in this coolest and most melancholic of colours; indigo waves defining characters’ sense of ennui. Perhaps the defining image of his career is this wonderful, jazz-cool shot of Robert De Niro in Heat, looking out of his blue-drenched apartment at the LA skyline, thinking long and hard about his place in the universe. It’s the cover of F.X. Feeney’s essential book about Mann, and it’s a shot good enough to be hung on the wall. Against a cream background, probably – don’t want to bum anybody out.

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
