This undisputed masterpiece from director Norman Jewison (The Thomas Crown Affair) is one of the most radical and acclaimed movies of its generation. Rod Steiger (A Fistful of Dynamite) gives an Oscar-winning performance as a sheriff from small-town Mississippi who finds himself in an uneasy alliance with a black homicide detective from Philadelphia—strikingly portrayed by Sidney Poitier (Lilies of the Field). In the course of investigating the crime, the two strong-willed men must reconcile their inherent prejudice towards each other. The final result is justice—and an unlikely but touching mutual respect. Supporting performances by Warren Oates (Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia) and Lee Grant (The Landlord), an evocative score by Quincy Jones (The Getaway) and vivid cinematography by Haskell Wexler (The Conversation) all add to the film’s authentic aura of a hot summer evening in the Deep South. Winner of five Academy Awards including Best Picture for Walter Mirisch (The Great Escape), Best Adapted Screenplay for Stirling Silliphant (Charly) and Best Editing for Hal Ashby (The Cincinnati Kid), In the Heat of the Night is a blistering commentary on race relations and a landmark in entertainment.

The strong El Nino weather condition that added a bit of extra heat to already record warm global temperatures is gone
The strong El Nino weather condition that added a bit of extra heat to already record warm global temperatures is gone. It's cool flip side, La Nina, is likely to breeze in just in time for peak Atlantic hurricane season, federal meteorologists said.
The National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration Thursday pronounced dead the El Nino that warms parts of the central Pacific. The El Nino, while not quite a record breaker in strength, formed a year ago has been blamed, along with human-caused climate change and overall ocean warmth, for a wild 12 months of heat waves and extreme weather.
The world is now in a neutral condition when it comes to the important natural El Nino Southern Oscillation, which warps weather systems worldwide. Neutral is when weather gets closer to long-term averages or normal, something that hasn't happened as much recently as it used to, said NOAA physical scientist Michelle L’Heureux, who is the lead forecaster of the agency’s ENSO team. But it likely won't last, she added.
She said there's a 65% chance that a La Nina, a cooling of the same parts of the Pacific that often has opposite effects, will form in the July, August and September time period. One of the biggest effects of La Nina is that it tends to make Atlantic hurricane season more active, and that storm season starts its peak in August.
“The likelihood of a La Nina coupled with record warm sea surface temperatures is the reason the National Hurricane Center is forecasting an extraordinary hurricane season ,” said Kathie Dello, North Carolina's state climatologist. “States from Texas to Maine are making preparations for an active year.”
Both El Nino and La Nina create “potential hot spots” for extreme weather but in different places and of different types, L'Heureux said.
“La Nina tends to, in the winter, bring drier conditions across the southern tier of the United States and if you put global warming on top of that, that could also mean those drier conditions could intensify into droughts,” L'Heureux said.
That's because storm systems, mostly in the winter, move slightly northward with a shift in the jet stream during La Nina years, bringing more rain and snow north, L'Heureux said.
Even though a La Nina tends to be cooler, there will likely be a residual effect of the exiting El Nino on global temperatures, L’Heureux said. This year has seen each month breaking global records so far.
No more than 8% of last year's record heat could be attributed to El Nino and other natural variability, a panel of 57 scientists concluded earlier this month. The rest was from human-caused climate change from the burning of coal, oil and natural gas.
A 1999 economic study found that drought from La Nina cost the United States agriculture between $2.2 billion to $6.5 billion, which is far more than the $1.5 billion cost of El Nino. A neutral ENSO is best for agriculture.
Given La Nina's connection to Atlantic hurricanes and drought in the United States it makes sense that they are generally costlier, but every El Nino and La Nina is different, so people and governments should prepare for them, said meteorologist and economist Michael Ferrari, chief scientific officer of AlphaGeo, a firm that works on financial investments and climate.
The El Nino that just ended “wasn't a record-breaker in anybody's book, but it was probably about top five,” L'Heureux said. And it added to overall global temperature and brought more moisture to the southern United States this year, along with drier conditions in parts of South America and Central America, she said. The Horn of Africa got wetter.
Coral reef experts say the combination of record ocean temperatures and the boost of heating from El Nino have led to a major global bleaching event threatening and at times killing vulnerable coral.
Before this year’s El Nino, the world had back-to-back-to-back La Ninas , which is unusual, L’Heureux said. Some studies have shown that the globe should expect more El Ninos and La Ninas — and fewer neutrals — as the world warms, but it’s still an unsettled issue, she said.

Yes, "The Heat" is a cop-buddy film, and of course there is a case to be solved. But nobody cares about the familiarity of the premise. What matters is the dynamic between the leads, and here it's consistently humorous, entertaining, often cringe-inducting due to the awkwardness, and, occasionally deep. While the pace of the film is uneven ...
Rated: 3.5/5 Mar 26, 2022 Full Review Kip Mooney College Movie Review If Hot Fuzz is the gold standard for recent buddy-cop movies and The Other Guys is the silver, then The Heat is the bronze.

Our review: Parents say ( 21 ): Kids say ( 61 ): The Heat takes a typically male genre -- the buddy-cop action movie -- and turns it on its head, serving up a hilarious, if predictable, contribution to the genre. The film's best assets are its leads, who share an easy, believable rapport, even if they're very different.

The Heat is a 2013 American buddy cop action comedy film directed by Paul Feig and written by Katie Dippold.It stars Sandra Bullock and Melissa McCarthy with Demián Bichir, Marlon Wayans, Michael Rapaport, and Jane Curtin in supporting roles. The film centers on FBI Special Agent Sarah Ashburn and Boston Detective Shannon Mullins, who must take down a mobster in Boston.
The buddy movie has been around for so long it seems incredible to think there's still anywhere to go but The Heat manages to achieve that by simply changing the gender of its two main protagonists. It's been over thirty years since Eddie Murphy and Nick Nolte established the template for the mismatched buddy-cop movie in Walter Hill's 48 Hours and it makes you wonder why it's taken so ...

There is a sequence at the center of Michael Mann's "Heat" that illuminates the movie's real subject. As it begins, a Los Angeles police detective named Hanna (Al Pacino) has been tracking a high-level thief named McCauley (Robert De Niro) for days. McCauley is smart and wary and seems impossible to trap. So, one evening, tailing McCauley's car, Hanna turns on the flashers and pulls him over.
Movie Review: 'The Heat'. Gabe Johnson • June 28, 2013. The Times critic A. O. Scott reviews "The Heat," starring Melissa McCarthy and Sandra Bullock.
Heat was shot on crisp 35 mm film, and it's a beautiful-looking movie, but its follow-ups have been suspended between clarity and murk; think of the neon rainbows of Collateral, or Miami Vice ...
The Heat could've been just as funny—funnier, in fact—without the scads of raw language and body-part jokes. This movie is so profane, in fact, that bits of the trailer had to be scrubbed clean to air it on TV and before other movies. I know, I know: Crass is in.
Even with a script that has no real surprises and characters that aren't believable, let alone sympathetic, it manages to be some good (profanity-laden, farcical) fun. It's just a shame that for a film that takes such an important step for female-centered comedies and is so emphatically unapologetic of its bluntness, it is entirely forgettable.

Neither one of them having any real choice in the matter, Ashburn and Mullins reluctantly partner up and try to work together to hunt down the drug lord and bring him in. Juvenile, silly, and ridiculous, The Heat is an incredibly unfunny, awkward Odd Couple film that has only three original laughs in the entire movie. Sandra Bullock and Melissa ...

THE HEAT is an extremely crude comedy with lots of strong foul language and some extreme violence, plus some drug references, all of which cancels out a strong moral message about protecting family and fighting evil criminals.
