Michael Mann · 1986 · USA
Mann’s genre-defining serial-killer thriller returns in a stunning new restoration overseen by the filmmaker himself. A retired criminal profiler (William Petersen) reluctantly returns to the FBI to help track down a murderer and is forced to consult an expert—the imprisoned Dr. Hannibal Lecktor (Brian Cox in a subtly chilling performance). Adapted from the first of Thomas Harris’s Lecktor novels, MANHUNTER’s supporting cast includes Tom Noonan as the hunted killer, and three-time Oscar nominee Joan Allen.

At once a love story and a celebration of a uniquely American tradition of wandering, SUMMER TOUR reflects on what it means to seek belonging, adventure, and transcendence in a fleeting moment of cultural history.
