'Blow Out'. 'Blow Out' is a psychological and poignant film about the curiosity and outcomes surrounding the death of a politician. When Jack Terry (Travolta) is out catching sounds for a film he is putting together, he records (and therefor, witnesses) a car get its tire blown out and fall into the nearby river. Astounded, he jumps into the car and finds there to be a dead driver, but a woman, very much alive and in distress. He rescues her, and both are taken to the hospital. It is revealed that the lady's name is Sally Bedina (Nancy Allen) and the man she was with is the man who was most likely to be the next president, Gov. McRyan. Chaos ensues when Jack finds out (through his sound recordings) that the car was not hit by a flat tire, but that someone may have shot the tire out, as an assassination. As Sally and Jack delve deeper and deeper into the mystery, someone is out there, watching them, waiting, with an agenda of his own. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0082085/usercomments [Added reference - McG] Jun 21 02, 6:50 PM
