Michael Mann wanted to give the impression of Frank being a rat in a maze throughout the film, particularly in the few scenes leading up to the big heist. Metallic colors were utilized to make the city streets seem more like tunnels. This is also why Mann opted for the electronic score instead of the bluesy score he initially wanted. Only after Frank kills his oppressor, the score finally does turn into bluesy rock melodies, reinforcing the moment of change.
