BAMcinématek 2017
series Edgar Wright Presents Heist Society
Directed by Michael Mann | 1981
With James Caan, Tuesday Weld, Robert Prosky
“Neo noir at its finest, this early Michael Mann flick stars James Caan as the ultimate thief who gets caught up in a deadly double-cross.”
—EDGAR WRIGHT
An every-man-for-himself jewel thief (Caan) forms an uneasy alliance with a Chicago crime outfit to pull off a daring mega-heist. But when the mob tries to rein him in, all hell breaks loose. The neon-lit nightscapes, the coolly stylized violence, the intricately choreographed action sequences: Michael Mann’s trademarks arrive fully formed in his directorial debut. Plus: a pulse-pounding Tangerine Dream score.
