Fearless

Fearless

After surviving a horrific airplane crash in which he remained calm in the face of the panic and fear surrounding him, Bridges helps a mother (Perez) who lost her baby in the crash. With his fearlessness quickly moving beyond safe into dangerous, as he believes he is untouchable to normal human events - such a walking across busy highways and standing on building ledges - Bridges marriage (to Rossellini) begins to fall apart. Only by realizing the laws of human frailty apply to him will Bridges be truly alive again and his marriage saved. Intricate, complex work by Bridges.

Watch for an excellent Tom Hulce (Animal House, Amadeus) as a sleazy lawyer with a catch phrase: I know, I’m bad…It doesn't stop him...and great performances by Rosie Perez, Isabella Rossellini, and John Turturro as a psychiatrist the airline hires.
