Heat
by Michael Mann
A weary and injured Chris seeks refuge at Neil's minimalist apartment after a domestic dispute. Neil offers his cold, professional philosophy on detachment while Chris confesses his deep emotional dependency on his wife and child despite his gambling debts.
Two adversaries, a professional thief and a veteran detective, meet face-to-face in a diner to acknowledge their mutual respect and the inevitable lethality of their next encounter. They discuss the personal sacrifices required by their professions and the 'discipline' of being able to walk away from everything in thirty seconds.
