Rico,I have the dvds of Body Heat and Crimson Tide, and agree on your assessment...I return to them at least yearly.
Kathleen Turner never again (imo) achieved that degree of "hot"...and man is she sizzlin' here! I've never cared for Hurt, except, perhaps in Big Chill ("I'm in sales")...another actor in his place might have made this an even better neo-noir (got a nomination?).
Crimson Tide has a great home theater sound to it...the "pings" can get a bit annoying, but very fun. As much as I love him, Gene H.'s Captain may be a bit over the top...but a suspenseful film throughout.
The other two films mentioned I've seen...good point on the Wood man's penchant for 'older men-younger women' theme...I guess he lives it in his real life. I'm a fan of Woody's, especially his "middle period" (starting with Annie Hall), and think Manhatten is a masterpiece...put I think he has fallen off badly with his recent output. I can't remember all of them, but Sweet and Lowdon is the only film by Woody in years that struck a chord with me...and it was only mildly interesting, imo.
FWIW, I got the dvd of Bridge on the River Kwai from my local library last night, and watched it for the very first time (I don't know how I missed this!). Fantastic looking film!
All the best,Gary
