HEAT — A Briefing for Matt
An interactive, friend-to-friend case file designed to finally get Matt to watch Michael Mann’s 1995 crime film.
Field notes
The site turns a film recommendation into a navigable case file, moving from an indictment of Matt’s repeated postponement to chaptered treatments of the armored car, glass house, bank, diner, and runway scenes. Its visible evidence includes a 170-minute runtime, more than seventy real Los Angeles locations, and the first shared Pacino–De Niro frame. Buttons let the recipient start a 30-second prompt, record a viewing decision, share the briefing, or find a streaming source.
