This is probably the third time I've watched The Hot Spot. It get's better every time. After it's release it had some pretty bad reviews. Don Johnson wasn't well liked and people seemed to expect something else from director Dennis Hopper.
Watching it in 2012 there's a lot about it that's very good. Sensual Virginia Madsen and Jennifer Connelly at her most beautiful. Don Johnson in good form. The movie also has a timeless quality. Most of the time I had the idea it took place around 1950 but some of the cars are more modern and there is a Unisys computer in Jennifer Connelly's office.
On top of this it's beautifully shot.
Don Johnson as the cold, selfish drifter and the stunning Jennifer Connelly. What a face!
Sizzling sex.
As if we didn't know she was a Femme Fatale yet.
