It follows the basic story from James M. Cain's novel....drifter Frank Chambers (Nicholson) stops by a local diner run by a Greek man named Nick who offers him a job as mechanic. Frank is at first reluctant to take the job, but one look at the Greek's wife, Cora, and he changes his mind and starts right away. It isn't long before he and Cora start up a sizzling affair. Frank convinces Cora to run away with him, but Cora gets cold feet and wants to stay at the diner. She convinces him that it would be better to just murder Nick so they can be together and keep the diner....however fate throws in more than one monkey wrench in their plans....
I loved the 1946 original but I also really love this version....if I have one disappointment with the 1981 film is that it doesn't quite end like the original movie and the novel did. Justice needed to be served for BOTH characters not just one of them. Why the filmmakers didn't do this I don't know. Though I suppose of the two of them Cora probably deserved the comeuppance the most since it was HER idea to kill her husband.
But be that as it may, it's still a damn fine movie in its own right. Highly recommend it.
I read the "Postman" some years ago. A writer myself I have admired the work of James M. Cain immensely. Much of this movie sticks very close to the book but with a few additions for the movie. Nicholson is great as always, his facial expressions alone make this movie worth watching. Scenery and period were so good you felt like it was the 1930's. Do you self a favor...
These two lovers are incapable of doing anything right and bungle practically everything they try to do, including the murder of Nick in order to free themselves for their own lustful pastime. What they do exceptionally well, however, is the mating game. These are some of the hottest love scenes you will see in any movie.
Jack Nicholson of course is always good, even when he plays himself. Ms. Lange is capable of showing intense emotion and irratic behavior at a moment's notice.
A very good remake of this classic story.
Film noir. There’s some adult themes in this film.

Der Verkäufer kann da nichts dafür! Der Film hat eine deutsche Tonspur ("tedesco") und funktioniert prima. Ich habe auch den original (schwarz-weiß) Film mit Lana Turner auf DVD und muss sagen, dass beide Versionen schön zum Anschauen sind. Die mit Jack Nicolson ist halt moderner und in manchen Szenen "offener" gedreht, als der alte Film. Ich besitze einige DVDs und BluRays mit Jack und finde, dass er ein wirklich guter Schauspieler ist.
