Screen greats Richard Gere (Internal Affairs) and Kim Basinger (L.A. Confidential) sizzle in a searing action thriller of passion and murder, No Mercy. Gere stars as Eddie Jillette, a tough, uncompromising cop whose vow to avenge his partner’s death draws him into a torrid affair with the only witness, the murderer’s girlfriend. Basinger is the sultry Cajun beauty Michel, caught in the war between Gere and vicious crimelord Losado (Jeroen Krabbé, The Fugitive), the man who possesses her. Jillette’s vendetta takes him from the streets of Chicago to the violent underworld of New Orleans, where he abducts Michel to flush out Losado. He escapes into the treacherous bayou with his unwilling captive, but as their pursuers close in and the danger mounts, so does their lust for each other. Out of time and out of luck, Jillette confronts Losado in an explosive climax where there is…No Mercy. Directed by Richard Pearce (Heartland, Country), written by James Carabatsos (Heartbreak Ridge, Hamburger Hill) and co-starring George Dzundza (Basic Instinct), William Atherton (Die Hard), Terry Kinney (The Firm), Bruce McGill (Law Abiding Citizen) and Ray Sharkey (Wise Guys).
