Untamed Heart (1993)
Directed by Tony Bill
Written by Tony Sierchio
Starring Christian Slater, Marisa Tomei, Rosie
Perez
Caroline (Marisa Tomei), a young waitress who seems
to have bad taste in men, is on her way home one night when thugs
attempt to rape her. Adam (Christian Slater), the mysterious busboy
who works at the same diner, helps fight off the assailants, and
she begins a relationship with him -- but not all their fellow
Minnesotans are happy for them. Meanwhile, the couple face their
own difficulties when Caroline finds about Adam's past, including
his unique health condition.
This week, Sean, Amy and M.J talk about the
gaslighting romance, Untamed Heart in which a silent weirdo breaks
into the home of the woman he's obsessed with so he can watch her
sleep. When she's attacked by two other men, our silent weirdo
saves her and they begin a romance that includes him continuing to
break into her home and watch her sleep and she finds this...
romantic. That's 1993 for ya! The silent weirdo also thinks he has
a Baboon heart given to him as a child by a Baboon King from whom
his father had stolen rubies. So yeah, this movie is f***ing
weird.
