Stone Romance
Romancing the Stone is one of my all time favorites and a joy to watch each time I view it. I love Cathline Turner in this video and her interaction with Michael Douglas is great.

It still is worth having instead of the standard dvd but I really wish they had done more to make this a better quality blu-ray.

Perchance her sister Elaine (Mary Ellen Trainor), looking for the other body parts of Elaine's dismembered husband, is kidnapped and ransomed by ruthless people, (Danny DeVito and Zack Norman.)
This just happens to be in Columbia. It seems that there are other interested parties that are down right vicious.
Will Joan Wilder find the type of romance she ... Read More
