ABOUT THE FILMS COLLATERAL, 2004, Paramount, 120 min. Dir. Michael Mann From the mind of the legendary Michael Mann comes a piece of neo-noir as lean, mean and thrilling as they come. A cab driver realizes his current fare is a hit man that has been having him drive around from mark to mark until the last witness to a crime is dead. When the cabbie finally figures out the truth, he must prevent the assassin from wiping out his final witness without becoming the next in the professional killer’s line of casualties. – Evrim Ersoy FORMAT: DCP THIEF, 1981, Park Circus/MGM, 122 min. Dir. Michael Mann Director Michael Mann’s stunning debut feature stars James Caan as the professional thief of the title, a man whose desire for domestic tranquility clashes with his obligations in the underworld. Featuring a cast of standout supporting performances, with Jim Belushi as Caan’s partner, Willie Nelson as his mentor and Robert Prosky as the deadly boss he has to please. Actual thieves served as technical consultants on the film, supplying an array of tools used in real heists. FORMAT: DCP
