Sea of Love (2003, DVD)

Movie Description
New York cop Frank Keller is on the trail of a serial killer who murders men answering personal ads in the classifieds. The ads, written in poetic couplets, are quite romantic, but those who meet their mysterious author end up dead in their own apartments with a 45rpm copy of the '50s single "Sea of Love" on their turntables. Keller, suspecting the murderer is a woman, places his own advertisement in the paper and sets up dinner dates (one every half-hour) with the respondents; he lifts their fingerprints from their wine glasses and matches them against those of the murderer, taken from the crime scene. But Keller's scheme fails when he falls in love with one of the suspects and refuses to check her prints. With each passing day their romance grows hotter... and the growing evidence keeps pointing more strongly to her guilt.

Editorial Reviews
Included in the New York Times "10 Best Films of 1989" List
New York Times - p.II, 22 - Vincent Canby

"...A lowdown, gorgeously lurid thriller....Pacino is terrific in it: vital, charming, funny, torchy and touching..."
Rolling Stone - Peter Travers (10/05/1989)

"...[The film has] a sense of humor....[The actors] are a bright, constant pleasure. Pacino and Barkin do scorch the screen..."
Los Angeles Times - Kevin Thomas (09/15/1989)

    I have watched this movie a million times in VHS. I finally got it in DVD. The structure of the movie, makes it suspensful every time you see it even if you know the ending. It is a combination of mystery, suspense, character study and highly charged sexual scenes. It has it all. I fell in love with Ellen Barkin as an actress and she has never gotten proper credit for her acting ability. Anyway I highly recommend this movie as one you can watch over and over.

      Sea of Love (2003, DVD) One of Pacino's best roles
    Review created: 05/11/08

    This is one of Pacino's best roles, in a movie that has flown under the radar. Ellen Barkin is great, as is John Goodman. Plot is excellent for a modern whodunit.

    I purchased Sea of Love by using E Bay.This movie was not easy to find in the retail stores. You could not beat the price. Great movie.
