When a notorious Vietnamese businessman is murdered in a Manhattan office building, night janitor Daryll Deever (Academy Award®-winner William Hurt) pretends to know about the crime to impress beautiful TV reporter Tony Sokolow (Academy Award®-nominee Sigourney Weaver). Tony wants an exclusive news story. Daryll wants Tony. And now somebody - in a conspiracy that may include his volatile best friend (James Woods), her wealthy fiancé (Christopher Plummer), a determined police lieutenant (Academy Award®-winner Morgan Freeman), Asian mobsters and more - wants them both dead. As the danger inches closer, is there anyone these two unlikely lovers can trust...including each other?

Steven Hill (Law & Order) co-stars in this acclaimed suspense hit from Oscar®-winning screenwriter Steve Tesich (Breaking Away) and Oscar®-nominated producer/director Peter Yates (Bullitt, The Deep, The Dresser) that New York Magazine calls "completely fresh...a truly romantic thriller!"
