Attorney Ned Racines life coasts along in neutral - until he meets a siren in white (with a well-to-do husband) named Matty Walker.

Ned knows Mattys the kind of woman a man would kill to be with.

So he does.

William Hurt and Kathleen Turner strike sparks in Lawrence Kasdans Body Heat, a sexy, haunting tale echoing 1940s film noirs but charged with an energy and passion that can only flare in the 80s.

Kasdans assured directorial debut foreshadows the emotional textures he would bring to later films The Big Chill, The Accidental Tourist and Grand Canyon.

Sit back and bask in this contemporary classics wicked warmth.
