Welcome to the debut episode of Opera Omnia Podcast, the podcast that dedicates each season to a incredible director and work through his Opera Omnia (or body of work) one movie at a time.
Join you hosts Andy Blockley and Duncan Mcleish (formerly of Doing the Nasty Podcast) as they take an in-depth look at some of the best directors in cinema history with Season 1 exclusively looking into the filmography of Michael Mann.
On episode 1 the guys look back at Mann’s first theatrical release, the woefully under appreciated Thief (1980).
Movie Rating is 1-10
Thief
Duncan – 9
Andy – 9
Each episode we will ask the question, is this the best movie in Mann’s back catalogue and as of episode 1 we agree that Thief is the best Michael Mann movie. We will see how long this holds out.
