(740) Into the night

I am not really a movie fan. The only name I could recognize on the cast was Michelle Pfeiffer. My husband picked up a bunch of legal VCD on sale. This movie reminded me of Date Night: a married couple that went on a date took someone's reservation and ended up being hounded by a bunch of killers.

The only difference is that Ed was not married to Diana. He went to the airport one night when he could not sleep and saved Diana's life by being at the exact place at the exact time. The story became more and more bizarre as it rolled along. I enjoyed looking at the expensive and decorative places Diana went to seek help or Ed went to negotiate. Those places even beat the hotels shown on TV where the rich and famous frequent.

From a few crown jewels, it exploded to real estate. From four Iranian gangsters, some French men became involved. The body counts mounted as the chase gotten  more exciting. Guns were shot, knives were stabbed. Then miraculously Ed and Diana were rescued by a team of people they did not know. A whole lot of clean money was given for them to start anew. Ed chose to go with Diana. After all, that beats a dead end job and a cheating wife.
