I'm really happy that the dude credited with writing "Luke, I am your father." also wrote "Hey lady, ya wanna fuck?"
The pinnacle of “sweaty cinema,” as in movies where every character is dripping with sweat in literally every scene
William Hurt got so horny he threw a chair through a window to get some pussy and I simply must respect the drive
Florida Man Fucks Up Big Time
The fog machine/vaseline budget on this movie must have been fucking ridiculous.
A movie so horny it would be illegal to make today. Kathleen Turner has to be the hottest femme fatale in movie history. It’s unreal.
That scene where Kathleen Turner rolls up the car window, slowly revealing William Hurt’s reflection from the waist up to his new hat is one of the greatest director flexes of all time.
Answers the age old question: what if Double Indemnity was sweaty and Ted Danson was there?
You know that song by Nelly? The one about it's getting so Hot in Here you want to take off all your clothes? Yeah, Body Heat is steamy as a sauna and hot as lava rock.
Body Heat combines erotica with noir and it's almost a perfect fit. William Hurt is the sleazy lawyer with the even sleazier laugh. Kathleen Turner is one of the most memorable femme fatales. She's smokin' more than just Marlboro cigarettes. Their chemistry is real, and they sweat it out on the screen, like two pigs at a tanning bed. If Body Heat isn't a 2 hour commercial for high-end deodorant, I don't know what is.
Lawrence Kasdan writes and directs. The same fella who's…
"When it gets this hot, people try to kill each other.”
In the running for most aptly titled motion picture. Kasdan shamelessly steals from a few of his favorite noirs and (like De Palma frequently did with Hitchcock) affectionately retools the nostalgic tropes into something more explicit and sticky and fun. Things that were once innuendo about the intense passions of a couple of lustful, scheming murderers are amplified into the gratuitous extreme of two of the hottest people ever put on camera in perpetual states of wetness and undress. Living in a lush dream world of bed sheets, convertibles, and cigarettes that eventually give way to the shadows and fire bubbling beneath, the camera gliding along in total awe of how inextricably entwined they've become... Physically, emotionally, legally.
This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
