As a scorcher unravels from day to night in Brooklyn, the motive for Al Pacino’s botched bank robbery/hostage taking is revealed to be the funding of his wife’s gender-affirming surgery. Lumet’s ultimate exercise in realism, with 60% of the dialogue improvised – including Pacino’s phone call to his wife, shot in a single, 15-minute take. (Film Forum)
