JULY 1
Start July with the cinematic sizzle of 1981's Neo-noir BODY HEAT- inspired by film-noir classic Double Indemnity, Body Heat infused top notch Film Noir with an updated Regan-era cynicism and eroticism hitherto unseen in movies of this pedigree. Starring a perfect William Hurt and a seductively excellent Kathleen Turner in the role that launched her career, Body Heat is one of the most suspenseful... and sexy crime-films ever made. As part of our great Film Noir Series- cool the suspense with a Pinot noir tasting the in lobby pre-film (featuring several brands).
In the midst of a searing Floria heat wave... Shyster lawyer Ned Racine (William Hurt) begins a passionate affair with Matty Walker (Kathleen Turner), wife of a wealthy Florida businessman (Richard Crenna). With the help of one of his criminal clients, bomb maker Teddy Lewis (Mickey Rourke), Ned hatches a scheme to kill Matty's husband so that they can run away together with his money. But complications build upon double-crosses, launching the hapless lawyer into a situation far more treacherous than he imagined.
Enjoying an ever-growing legacy of admiration, Body Heat continues to steam almost 45 years later. "Made from classic noir ingredients and flavored with a heaping helping of steamy modern spice, Body Heat more than lives up to its evocative title." -96% Fresh Rotten Tomatoes Critical summation. Written & Directed (in his directorial debut) by Lawrence Kasdan (Raiders Of The Lost Ark, The Empire Strikes Back.
