The little film called Heat that pitted Al Pacino against Robert De Niro turned 20 recently and in honor of the classic, we decided to live tweet a rewatch of the film. The film premiered in 1995 and has lived on in our minds ever since. I don’t want to spoil anything so let’s just get to the tweets. Below, you’ll find up to date thoughts, quotes, clips and a little trivia as I rewatched one of my favorite films.
In honor of #Heat starring Al Pacino and Robert Deniro turning 20, I’ll be live tweeting my re-watch tonight for an article.
