Heat – 1995
Directed by Michael Mann, this crime thriller was the first to feature Robert De Niro and Al Pacino acting together in a film. De Niro is head of a professional bank robbing ring and Pacino the cop out to bust them. This film is sleek and stylish, the signature mark of director Mann, and filled with troubled characters. You want atmosphere – this is your film.

With the coming of spring in our parts, it also means the coming of pollen. Susan, Mini-Alex would like to show you another sign of spring and the source of all my allergies (and sneezing fits) right now:
Have you seen Heat? Following Suzanne? Enjoying the A to Z Challenge? Picking up Teresa’s book or remember her 2012 Challenge posts? Anyone else plagued by pollen? And what do you remember about 1995…?
