Past Midnight

Rutger Hauer and Natasha Richardson star in this penetrating psychological thriller about a man's search for a new beginning and a woman's deadly search for truth. Ben Jordan (Hauer) is released from prison after serving 15 years for killing his pregnant wife. Laura Mathews (Richardson) is his social worker. Undeniably drawn to the intelligent, intense convict, Laura starts to believe Ben's story that he was framed. But as she pieces together the 15-year-old puzzle, someone begins to terrorize her in her home. Too late, Laura realizes how little she really knows about the man she has fallen in love with...and how vulnerable that makes her. Edge-of-your-seat suspense builds to unbearable heights of fear as Laura discovers that passion can be the most dangerous crime of all. (Verleiher-Text)
