One HEAT Minute: Episode #84 - Dr Hamish Ford

ONE HEAT MINUTE is the podcast examining Michael Mann's 1995 crime epic HEAT minute by minute. It's the 84th minute (1:23:00-1:24:00) - host Blake Howard joins Senior Lecturer in Film, Media and Cultural Studies and program convenor for the Bachelor of Arts program at the University of Newcastle (and his honours thesis supervisor) Dr Hamish Ford. Blake and Hamish discuss how Mann gets right what so many others get wrong in conversation staging, the concept of "amour fou" or crazy love and being compelled to crime because of the banality of regular life; fraternal guidance in Voight's performance; the majesty of the overpass cathedral and so much more.
