‘The Friends of Eddie Coyle’ is a Michael Mann film before there was a Michael Mann. It’s a 70’s ‘Thief’, a low-rent, down on its luck ‘Heat’.
Cris-crossing two-timing cops and robbers. Worn out old pros. Finks, snitches, the snitch and the snitchee. Crime capers so detailed, so clear and framed so fantastic they’re a how-to manual for those on the slippery slope.
