Few other contemporary Hollywood filmmakers fit the category of
"genre stylist" as well as Michael Mann, the director of such films
as Heat, The Insider, Ali, Collateral, Manhunter, Thief, and Miami
Vice. Mann's film style marks him as a director who chooses the
iconographic backdrop of a genre as a canvas upon which he and his
collaborators can craft a unique cinematic vision. The Cinema of
Michael Mann traces the innovative and under-explored stylistic
contours of Mann's work, the director's inflection upon and
innovation within preexisting genre frameworks, and the
relationship of both style and genre to issues of authorship and
film criticism. Steven Rybin's critical study of Mann's cinema, and
the importance of the filmmaker's themes to our contemporary world,
is valuable for both film scholars and cinephiles alike.
