His unique visual sense and thematic approach are evident in the Emmy Award-winning The Jericho Mile , the cult favorite The Keep , the American epic The Last of the Mohicans , and the Academy Award-nominated The Inside r, as well as more recent works such as Ali , Miami Vice , and Public Enemies . The Philosophy of Michael Mann provides a comprehensive account of the work of this highly accomplished filmmaker, exploring the director's recognizable visual style and the various on-screen and philosophical elements he has tested in his thirty-five-year career. The essays in this wide-ranging book will appeal to fans of the revolutionary filmmaker and to philosophical scholars interested in the themes and conflicts that drive his movies.
