One HEAT Minute: Episode #106 - Jon Abrams (Editor of Daily Grindhouse)

Uncategorized
Written By Blake Howard

ONE HEAT MINUTE is the podcast examining Michael Mann's 1995 crime saga HEAT, minute by minute. It's the 106th minute (1:45:00-1:46:00) - host Blake Howard joins New York-based writer, cartoonist, committed cinemaniac, and editor of Daily Grindhouse, Jon Abrams. Blake and Jon talk about Michael Mann's "epic realism," faith in the audience to process fleeting bits of information to maintain blistering momentum and the subtextual way that quintessentially New York actors (Pacino and De Niro) affect the pace of the L.A sprawl. Take off your balaclava, fix your hair and take a listen.
