Story Synopsis

Hurt stars as Ned Racine, a womanizing lawyer who happens upon the stunning, but married, Matty Walker (Turner in her film debut). After their second meeting, a passionate affair brings the two together while Matty’s husband, Edmund (Crenna), is away on business. Soon their desires for each other cannot be confined and they conspire to kill Edmund, but neglect to cover all of their tracks. Sultry, sexually erotic encounters, burning suspense, as well as scorching Florida temperatures in the film, add to the overall heat of Body Heat.
