Miami Vice Season 04 Episode 20 :: A Bullet for Crockett

I just finished binge watching all 5 seasons of Miami Vice. WHAT A SHOW. No idea what I've been missing. I made my own list of the top "obscure" episodes of Miami Vice: http://lopezvideo.net/blog/12/16/2017

But there's one episode that didn't make it on the list...

A Bullet for Crockett. The reason is simple: it's the 2nd worse episode in the entire show (the winner goes to "Leap of Faith"). But that INTRO scene - holy shit!

That intro scene is my #1 favorite scene in the entire season. It's got tension, fate, sex, life, death, pop, urban, nothing, everything, PERFECT! This is how you cinema.

PS: This show is universally iconic for its use of Phil Collins's "In The Air Tonight" in its pilot episode "Brother's Keeper" (Season 01 Episode 01). But what most people don't know is that the song is used for a second time in the series... In this episode, in this scene. And in my opinion, *THIS* is the defining / iconic use of the song... Not the pseudo-romantic fragment-poem bullshit they tried to pull off in the first episode, which caught on for some reason (I guess people really love shots of cars driving at night in a neon-glowing city...)

Enjoy.
