Perfect (DVD)
John Travolta stars as a Rolling Stone reporter who travels to Los Angeles to investigate a drug case and decides to write an exposi of the health-club craze of the 1980s. Reporter Adam Lawrence (Travolta) sets out to trash the fitness craze as just a replacement of the shallow singles bar scene of the 1970s. He even has a title in mind: Looking for Mr. Goodbody. As he researches his story, Adam meets Jessie (Jamie Lee Curtis), a sexy fitness instructor who has little use for scribes like him. Adam charms the reluctant Jessie, and before long the hot couple is working out together--in more ways than one. Suddenly Adam is faced with a quintessential dilemma of journalism: Can he be Jessie`s lover and still ridicule her friends and workplace? PERFECT features a lead performance from Rolling Stone`s real-life editor in chief, Jann Wenner, as Lawrence`s gutsy editor. The film is an intriguing drama that combines the glamorous world of magazine journalism with the seductive world of 1980s super health clubs.R"
