Writer and director Michael Mann visits the BFI Southbank to talk about his career with Edith Bowman. Multi award-winning writer and filmmaker Michael Mann is renowned for his distinctive visual style, deep collaboration with actors, and skilful reinvention of genre. His work examines existential themes, from the nature of morality and ethics, both in our personal and professional lives, and the desires and sacrifices that drive us. From the heart- stopping tension of Thief, the Hannibal Lecter thriller Manhunter to a rich body of work that includes The Last of the Mohicans, Heat, Ali, Collateral, The Insider and Public Enemies, Mann has been rightly lauded as one of American cinema’s great auteurs.
