A woman trapped in a boring marriage begins an affair with a handsome man who seems able to read her mind.
She doesn't know that he has broken into her house and read her diaries, where she has recorded her deepest thoughts and fantasies.....
This had the makings of a brilliant eighties movie for me. Great producers, great musicians doing the score, and just made in the part of the eighties where everything was cool, and everybody lived in excess.
So its unfortunate that this film for me sunk like a led balloon. Yes Bauer has the charisma and the looks, but he is awful as the lead, and his delivery of lines and the way he changes just ruins the whole movie.
Is this really the guy I saw in Scarface? He was amazing in that movie.
Plus the fact that the husband does the worst thing imaginable and tries to make a living rather than letting his wife seduce him. What's a girl to do?
Caruso pops up every now and again, with lots of attitude and the soundtrack crashes in and out one several occasions, which is funny for all the wrong reasons.
It's a cheesiest in a bad way, and thank goodness that the producers had Top Gun around the corner.
This had all the makings of a cool little thriller, it just gets more mundane as the film progresses and Bauer is nothing but a miserable child in this movie.
