Review of The Big Easy (1986) by Mark S — 09 Oct 2010
Double feature of the day - Body Heat(1981) followed by the Big Easy (1999). Film Noir with the Femme Fatale done right and in a way studios just can't seem to pull off any more. Two very good - very similar movies that play well off each other.
Both are great - and while personally I prefer the smolder between Hurt and Turner over Quaid and Barkin - both are great movies with great twists reminiscent of film noir from the 40's and 50's - but with the sexuality turned to full heat.
Smart and sexy - Great double feature...
