Road House

Road House

Love, treachery, and broken furniture are the hallmarks of this rollicking action drama. Dalton (Patrick Swayze) has a Ph.D., but rather than make a living teaching Socrates at some university, he's opted to become a top-drawer "cooler" -- an expert barroom bouncer who can break up fights without getting himself killed in the process. Dalton is hired to keep the peace at the Double Duce, a rough-and-tumble honky tonk in Jasper, Missouri, where beer-soaked free-for-alls are a nightly event. Dalton is hurt on his first night on the job, and he is patched up by "Doc" Clay (Kelly Lynch), a beautiful woman working as the town's physician. Dalton and Doc immediately hit it off, but Dalton learns that another man, Brad Wesley (Ben Gazzara), already has his eye on her. Wesley is a man used to getting his way; he's an extortionist and crime boss who has nearly everyone in Jasper under his thumb, and he sets out to teach Dalton a lesson, while Dalton is determined to clean up the town like he breaks up brawls at the Double Duce. Sam Elliott plays Dalton's mentor Wade, and Red West, a one-time member of Elvis Presley's "Memphis Mafia," appears as Webster; Canadian blues-rock guitarist Jeff Healey leads the Double Duce house band. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

What type of mother is that. if sunny was to stay with her mother, she would only learn to be a horrible person with no morals or values. is that what you would want for your child or yourself growing up. sunny is a child yes....but she knows tha jesse and sandra are trying to protect her and give her a good life. at least sandra cares about her and loves her..."

    Alpha said "To Cybersleuth. What makes Denise Richards any better than Charlie Sheen??? She didn't go to college either. And two minutes after her good friend separated from her husband Denise started dating him. (Bon Jovi) She has obvioulsy made some really far out remarks to slam Sheen of which many could never be proven. She lost her temper at some photographers and threw laptops off a balcony at a theater. They hit two women below. One in her 80's and one in her 90's. Fortunately they were not harmed. There are two sides to every story. "
