Tequila Sunrise

Synopsis:

Lifelong buddies Mel Gibson (The Patriot) and Kurt Russell (Escape from LA) are, respectively a retired drug dealer and the fast-rising LA cop after him; Michelle Pfeiffer (What Lies Beneath) is the waitress who comes between them in this sizzling noirish action thriller from Oscar-winning writer-director Robert Towne (Chinatown).

When word gets around that a big deal is going down with a drug lord (the late, great Raul Julia), personal loyalties and individual honor start to become a source of conflict.

Gibson and Pfeiffer share a sizzling aquatic love scene bathed in soft-focus sunset hues, courtesy of Oscar-winning cinematographer Conrad Hall (American Beauty).

Casts: Michelle Pfeiffer, Kurt Russell, Mel Gibson
