FRAME THE SHOT

Description

Basic Instinct, featuring Michael Douglas and Sharon Stone, is the edgy erotic-thriller that shocked audiences worldwide when it premiered in 1992. Douglas plays Nick Curran, a detective with a drinking problem and a soft spot for beautiful women. Stone is Catherine Tramell, a sexy crime novelist whose latest book’s plot seems to be playing out in real life when a rock star is murdered with an ice pick. As he investigates the murder, Curran’s suspicions about Tramell – and desire for her – spiral into a vortex of guilt, passion, and destruction, leading to one of filmdom’s most unforgettable twists.
