Otherwise, it's a classic thriller and one of the most famous films in the '80s.

The only thing I would change is the language, toning it down a bit. This two-hour film keeps your attention all the way. The widescreen DVD certainly brought out how nicely this film was shot and directed. Both actors do a superb job in here, but kudos also to the rest of the Gallagher family, played by Anne Archer (wife "Beth") and Ellen Hamilton Latzen (daughter "Ellen.") Also, the cinematography shouldn't be overlooked.

Men may commit more crimes, but that old adage about a "woman scorned" certainly is demonstrated here in spades! Douglas' character, "Dan Gallagher," certainly can attest to that, but he is anything but a sympathetic character. Looking back, I think the film was a good lesson for men (or women) thinking about cheating on their spouses and assuming nothing bad will happen as a result. Most of those memorable scenes, if not all of them, involve Glenn Close's character, "Alex Forrest." Man, this is a woman who would not be denied what she wanted: in this case, married man Michael Douglas. Still, this movie had memorable moments that have stayed with us who first saw it at the theater 20 years ago. Nowaways.who knows? As we become more and more desensitized to violence, sex and profanity, it takes a lot more to shock us. It was a 'favorite topic of conversation about the office water cooler' for a number of weeks. You don't hear much about this film anymore, but in its day, this was the most-talked about movie of the year.
