Review of Heat

Heat (1972)
Static, boring, not very easy to watch
18 September 2016
Which does not mean it is a bad movie. The film begins and ends with a cool song, signed John Cale. The revelation of the film is Sylvia Miles, she is the best, most natural and believable. Pat Ast, as Lydia, she is very natural too. Andrea Feldman, who was to commit suicide after this role, is as good as in Trash (1970), perhaps even better. Joe Dallesandro is the same as in all his movies. The film is original and makes me think, from point of view style, topic and interpretation, at the films of John Cassavetes. The difference is that Paul Morrissey, funded by Andy Warhol Factory, provides much sexuality. Recommended only for connoisseurs.
