Part of our FOUR PILLARS SUMMER FESTIVAL!

Made from classic noir ingredients and flavored with a heaping helping of steamy modern spice, BODY HEAT is gonna get ya steamy!

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.
