Based on the 1989 novel of the same name by Barry Gifford, WILD AT HEART tells the story of Sailor Ripley (Nicholas Cage) and Lula Pace Fortune (Laura Dern), a young couple from Cape Fear, North Carolina, who go on the run from Lula’s domineering mother (played by Diane Ladd, Dern’s real-life mother) and the gangsters she hires to kill Sailor.
Wild at Heart is part of our FACE/OFF Series featuring films of John Travolta & Nicholas Cage each Tuesday night, through May 3rd’s screening of FACE/OFF.
