Heat (1995) - FRAMED
An original 1995 Warner Bros. Black and White Publicity Still #HT-1, framed.
Robert De Niro as master thief Neil McCauley and Val Kilmer as his right-hand man Chris Shiherlis, mid-escape in the downtown bank-heist shootout, the most famous gunfight of the 1990s. Michael Mann shot it on the real streets of Los Angeles over several weekends and kept the live gunfire recordings rather than studio effects. It was so convincing that it has reportedly been used to show US Marines how to fall back under fire.
Taken by unit photographer Frank Connor and issued to the press on release, this is the scene that turned Heat into the benchmark for the modern heist film. Christopher Nolan has named it a key influence on The Dark Knight, and you can feel its DNA in almost every crime thriller since.
