Synopsis

Frank Chambers is a hustler who begins a passionate relationship with Cora Papadakis, an attractive and probably boring married woman. Together, they will end up planning the murder of the husband to collect life insurance that will allow them to enjoy an important sum of money.

Latest adaptation of the homonymous novel by James M. Cain, which directors such as Luchino Viscoti and Tay Garnett have made versions of. In this 'remake' of the first version, the director was Bob Rafelson, a close friend of Jack Nicholson, who had playwright David Mamet as screenwriter.

One of the few contributions of this version is that by not having to be so aware of censorship, Rafelson was able to convey the atmosphere of violence and sexual intensity that Cain's novel indicates. The protagonists of the romance were the great actors Jack Nicholson and Jessica Lange, in one of the most erotic roles they have played in their career.
