In the footsteps of Indiana Jones, director Robert Zemeckis teamed up
with stars Michael Douglas and Kathleen Turner to create his first
bona fide hit, Romancing the Stone. This first rate
adventure film takes place in the Colombian jungle. Turner is a
romance novelist who finds herself stranded in the jungle when her
bus breaks down. Douglas, a cruder, rougher-edged, fortune-seeking
version of her romanticized heroic leading man, reluctantly comes to
her rescue. The interplay between the stars is enchanting, and
action, humor, and romance are present in plentiful proportions.
Danny DeVito provides some of the laughs as a nasty minion of the
villain.
