Despite the failure of the storytelling part, some weird music choices, a rushed romantic relantionship and the not so exciting climax of "The Keep", there were some elements of this feature film that I did enjoy. One of them was a conversation between two Nazi officers about greed and the inceasant thirst for power of "the men in black" (Nazi officers, especially the main one), a dialogue I suppose was taken directly from the novel the movie was based on, though I may be wrong, since I didn't read the novel (but I'm a tad curios about it tbh). The second one was some of Michael Mann's cinematography. A scene with a forest in dark and green and a boat at sunrise/sunset really made me realize the director's potential, a potential that I hope he will confirm in the next of his movies that I am going to watch, namely Manhunter, The Last of the Mohicans and Heat.
