“This book is simply incredible. Slightly oversized, printed on slick color packing paper, TASCHEN lives up to their stellar reputation by publishing this fantastic book. F.X. Feeney was challenged by Michael Mann, something he had to accept in order to get the filmmaker's participation and has risen to the challenge by writing an outstanding book where he shares his fascinating insight into one of my three favorite directors. I learned a tremendous amount of information from this book and I was thrilled reading every page. The photos and information Michael Mann supplies amazed me. Seeing photos from his early work as well as behind the scenes from his feature films gave me quite a bit of pleasure. More important was hearing Mr. Mann's philosophical approach to directing and how he tackled each of his films. You'll be very surprised on discovering his reasons for making each of his films because I know I was. Every film Michael Mann has made so far is looked at. Gorgeous stills, storyboards and even Michael Mann's private notes are on full display. The only thing that disappointed me was when I finished reading the last page of this book. It is so darn good that I was hungry for more. Superb work.”
