Sea of Love (1989) / AvaxHome

Sea of Love is a 1989 erotic thriller film directed by Harold Becker, written by Richard Price and starring Al Pacino, Ellen Barkin and John Goodman. It is credited as the film that pulled Pacino out of his slump of film failures that occupied much of the 1980s.

Plot: New York Police detective Frank Keller (Al Pacino) is an alcoholic. His wife ran away from him and remarried one of his colleague detectives. Frank is angry and aggressive. He investigates a murder of a man in Manhattan, shot dead while face down naked in his bed while listening to a 45rpm recording of "Sea of Love". Keller has three clues - a lipstick-smeared cigarette, a want ad the dead man placed in a newspaper and a perfect set of fingerprints. A second man dies in the same manner in Queens. Detective Sherman Touhey (John Goodman) from that department suggests that Frank and Sherman collaborate. Both victims put rhyming ads in the paper looking for dates. They track down Raymond Brown (Michael O'Neill), the only other man with a rhyming ad. He's a married man and admits placing the ad, but swears on his children's lives that he threw away all the letters and never saw anyone.
Frank has an idea - place their own rhyming ad in the paper, take any women who respond to a restaurant and take the prints from their drinking glasses. Frank's boss (John Spencer) thinks it is a bad idea and does not approve the idea. He changes his mind when Raymond Brown also turns up dead in the same manner as the other two murder victims. Frank has dinner with several women, while Sherman - posing as a waiter - puts their glasses into evidence bags. One of the women, Helen Cruger (Ellen Barkin) snubs Keller and leaves before she takes a drink. Keller bumps into her again at a market, but this time, Cruger is more friendly. Frank takes Helen to his place, against his better judgement and advice from Sherman not to do so. They start getting passionate when Frank panics finding a gun in her purse, but it turns out to be just a starting pistol. Frank and Helen begin a relationship. Keller has a chance to obtain Cruger's fingerprints on a glass, but decides to wipe the glass clean. Their relationship becomes rocky when Cruger discovers that Keller is a cop.
