TDK Heat

It’s widely known how Christopher Nolan used Michael Mann’s Heat (1995) as inspiration for The Dark Knight (2008) in terms of the look and feel, themes and so on.  

This side-by-side comparison of the two shows exactly where that influence ended up. There are also some shots from Mann’s other films Collateral (2004) and LA Takedown (1989) – of which Heat was a remake.

Full screen + HD for maximum enjoyment.
