    The Mannathon #1:

    So this is where it began. The neon lighting, philosophical conversations in a diner, criminals with a code of honour - all the qualities that we love about Mann's most popular film 'Heat' and what have become synonymous with his style were born here. And these aspects weren't in infancy either, the way you'd expect a debut to only showcase a glimpse of what a director can potentially achieve later in his career. No, these are fully…
