The Hot Spot (1990)
6/10
In a dark world a Nice Tall Clean Cool (Beautiful) "SODA" known as Jennifer Connelly would be great.

This is dark movie indicating many people are faithless and totally immoral. This movie feature many evil characters doing many evil things. When the drifter Harry Madox (Don Johnson) reaches a small town in Texas, he gets a job as used car salesman with the dealer George Harshaw (Jerry Hardin) and settles down in a hotel room. During a fire, Harry observes that the local bank is left empty and open without any security. Sooner he plots a scheme to rob the bank, provoking a fire in his room to distract the employees. When Harry meets George's wife Dolly Harshaw (Virginia Madsen), the easy woman teases him and they have sex. Harry becomes the prime suspect of the bank heist and is arrested, but Dolly provided the necessary alibi to release him and blackmails him to have a love affair with her. Another evil character Frank Sutton appears in the movie and commits blackmail. There are murders and other evil events. This was filmed in dark lighting with many scenes at night. It depicts a very dark world.

If this is the world you like where right is whatever you can get away with, then this is your movie. I unfortunately found this movie quite depressing.

The reason I saw this movie is the one character Gloria Harper who is a nice tall clean cool character (or soda as Harry Maddox says during the movie) compared to the other evil characters. She is played by the Angelic looking Jennifer Connelly who at 18 she is the best looking woman I have ever seen in a movie.

She is the reason to watch this dark ugly story, if there is a reason.
