Introduction by Matteo Berardini
(USA, 1981) by Michael Mann, starring James Caan, Tuesday Weld, Willie Nelson, color, duration: 125 min., DCP original version with Italian subtitles
 
Fresh out of prison, burglar Frank decides to take part in one last big heist to settle down with the woman he loves. But things, of course, don't go as planned... Mann's first film released theatrically, it is a fast-paced, twilight noir, capable of alternating moments of raw realism with visionary surges. James Caan is magnificent in one of his best roles ever, and the soundtrack by Tangerine Dream is extraordinary.
 
4K restoration by The Criterion Collection, supervised by Michael Mann
