Product Description

Amazon.com essential video
While scoring high-profile credits as a screenwriter (including iThe Empire Strikes Back/i, iReturn of the Jedi/i, and iRaiders of the Lost Ark/i), Lawrence Kasdan made his directorial debut with this steamy, contemporary film noir in the tradition of iDouble Indemnity/i and other classics from the 1940s. In one of his most memorable roles, William Hurt plays a Florida lawyer unwittingly drawn into a web of deceit spun by Kathleen Turner (in her screen debut) as a married socialite who plots to kill off her husband with Hurt's assistance. Kasdan's dialogue is a hoot (sometimes it borders on satire), and the sultry atmosphere is a perfect complement to the perspiration-soaked chemistry between Hurt and Turner, whose love scenes caused quite a stir when the film was released in 1981. John Barry's score sets the provocative mood, and both Ted Danson and Mickey Rourke are splendid in memorable supporting roles. i--Jeff Shannon/i

 One of the Best Movies ever made! November 26, 2008
Scott E. Shanks (Louisville, KY USA)
The movie itself is one of the best movies ever made. A great neo-noir that has it all: murder, sex, money, twists, turns, humor. A true classic. br / br /The transfer of the movie is fine. If you are expecting a highly detailed look with bright colors, you will be disappointed. But this was not the way the movie was filmed. It is a noir film. It is supposed to be dark and soft. It was a relatively low budget movie as well. br / br /The extras on the disc are very good. Three good featurettes that cover the entire production of the movie from concept to post production. I only wish Lawrence Kasdan and/or the cast had done an audio commentary. br / br /Is this a significant improvement over the Collector's edition DVD? Probably not. But it is an improvement. If you have the original DVD released in the 90's with the 16x9 trnasfer on one side and a 4x3 trnasfer on the other with virtually no extras, pick this up. If you have the CE DVD, it's a tougher call, but I think the improvements make the disc worth picking up. It's very reasonably priced, as well
 Murder And Erotica November 24, 2008
Jim Kames (Fife Scotland)
Well acted and atmospheric modern noir thriller with Kathleen Turner creating sexual electricity in her debut role. Excellent blue ray transfer.
