One Heat Minute turned the movie Heat into a religious experience: An epic vessel of film appreciation, One Heat Minute is defined by its obsessive structure, in which each episode is dedicated to unpacking, analyzing, and celebrating a different minute of the movie. The podcast was created by Blake Howard, an Australian film critic and Heat superfan, who launched the podcast back in August 2017 after being prodded into the idea by a friend and fellow critic.

Some of my favorite quotes from Heat:
“Don’t let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner."
“So you never wanted a regular type life?” | “What the fuck is that? Barbeques and ballgames?”
"There is a flip side to that coin."
"I will not hesitate."
"We just got made."
"Why leave a living witness? Drop of a hat these guys will rock and roll. The shape charge--the shape charge indicates that they are technically proficient."
"Cause she's got a great ass!"
"There's cops all over me like a cheap suit, I can't dump them."
"Not enough steaks in the freezer."
"It comes to you, this stuff just flies through the air, they send this information 'beamed' out over the fucking place, you just got to know how to grab it, see, I know how to grab it."
"For me, the sun rises and sets with her, man."
"Well ya know, for me, the action is the juice."
"I'm a good citizen." | "I'm Donald Duck."
"I get killed for telling you this shit." | "-- killed walking your doggie."
"He's one of these guys out there prowling around all night, dedicated."
