'40's film noir update sizzles due to Kathleen Turner's turn as a dressed-in-white vamp and William Hurt's unflinching ability to play the dupe. By mixing quiet suspense with a tongue-in-cheek sense of humor Body Heat becomes not only director Lawrence Kasdan's best film by far but also one of the best films of the '80's.
Crackling dialogue, a steamy Florida atmosphere, and superb turns from Mickey Rourke as a sexy young arsonist, Ted Danson as a dancing attorney, Richard Crenna as the ill-fated husband, and Guiding Light's Kim Zimmer as the mysterious 'friend' add flavor to this great little number that also has one of the best endings of any movie in recent memory. Don't miss it!
