Cross My Heart

Share the misery of a disastrous night out in Cross My Heart, a frank and funny look at romantic facades and sexual mores in the confusing world of the '80s. It's the third date for David (Martin Short), who's so desperate to impress Kathy (Annette O'Toole) that he borrows his friend's new car, gets the keys to a posh apartment and tells her he's received a promotion when he's actually been fired. Kathy has her secrets too, specifically an addiction to nicotine and a seven-year-old daughter. As the date grinds on, they go from one misadventure to another until both wind up back at "his" place where things go from bad to worse. It's a touching, comic story about why relationships fail and how sometimes, against all odds, they succeed. (Original Title - Cross My Heart ('87)) - 1987 Universal City Studios, Inc.
