Body Heat (DVD) ... screenwriter (including The Empire Strikes Back, Return of the Jedi and Raiders of the Lost Ark), Lawrence Kasdan made his directorial debut with this steamy, contemporary film noir in the tradition of Double Indemnity 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. --Jeff Shannon

Body Heat (DVD): Hot enough for you? (603 words)

The old 'husband bump off' as it's known in the trade is one of the staples of a hitman's working week.Of course matters such as erasing one's partner should'nt be attempted by amateur bunglers partly as I'd be out of a job and partly as it's not as easy as it seems.This film is a case in point of what can go wrong.I often think about this movie as I drink the rainwater and eat discarded KFC mainly for the plot and technical details,and hardly for the steamy sex scenes at all!. The film follows the fortunes of Ned Racine,a Florida lawyer who is fortunate/unfortunate enough to end up in the bed of Matty Walker,a sexy married lady ...

Often compared to 'Double Indemnity', this film stars William Hurt and Kathleen Turner in a story of infidelity, murder and betrayal. The story is set in a steaming hot summer in Florida where WH meets KT and starts an equally steaming affair including a particularly risque scene in the hallway. This sets the scene for a plot involving a murdered husband, some legal jiggery pokery and double double double crossing. WH and KT (in her second ever film) are excellent, with good supporting performances from Ted Danson and Peter Coyote. Mickey Rourke (remember him) has a small role in the film as a smalltime hoodlum and explosives expert. This is an ...
