Making of Miami Vice

A very interesting book for those who once liked Miami Vice. This book really deserved a second edition with corrections on minor details, like some episodes synopses. Also, unfortunately, this book is before the last three seasons (there are some comments and plans about what would come to be the third season), which would also demand an "expanded edition" with an approach to the entire series, after all, more than a half of the series still was to be done then. However, it's very interesting to get into the dynamic and intense production of Miami Vice, the pressure of a top hit show during the peak of its success, details about actors, directors, guns, cars, schedules, and producer Michael Mann and his style that still in recent movies, like "Heat" and "The Insider", has a relation to Miami Vice (the mental tension of the characters, workaholic good or bad guys who'll put the job in first, second and third place in life, and the intense narrative). Altough there are very good pictures in the book, certainly it could have more than it actually has (and colored pictures would be better).It's a very, very, very hard-to-find book nowadays. This text refers to the Ballantine Books paperback first edition.
