series Heat & Vice: The Films of Michael Mann
Directed by Michael Mann | 2001
With Will Smith, Jamie Foxx, Jon Voight
“A victory lap for one of the American century's most compelling personalities.”
—J. Hoberman, The Village Voice
Boxing legend Muhammad Ali (Smith) goes from motor-mouthed upstart to heavyweight champ to 60s political lightning rod in this ambitious biopic. Aided by Will Smith’s mighty Oscar-nominated performance, Mann crafts a propulsive portrait of both a complex cultural icon and the era he defined, capturing some of the most visceral boxing scenes ever put on film.
These screenings will feature an original print from Michael Mann's archive.
