In Taylor Hackford's suspense-filled adventure film, American businessman Peter Bowman (David Morse) is traveling in a Latin American country when a group of criminals take him as their hostage and hold him for ransom. The megacorporation he works for sends in an expert hostage negotiator, Terry Thorne (Russell Crowe), to settle on a ransom with the kidnappers, an antigovernment faction. Thorne earns the reluctant trust of Bowman's wife, Alice (Meg Ryan), and begins trying to win Bowman's freedom, but conflict with Bowman's employers, missteps with the kidnappers, and Thorne's growing attraction to Alice threaten to derail his efforts. Crowe and Ryan are excellent as thrown-together allies under pressure, and Morse's descent from collected businessman to desperate hostage anchors the film. Watch for former NYPD BLUE sensation David Caruso as Crowe's partner. PROOF OF LIFE is based on an article entitled \"Adventures in the Ransom Trade,\" written by William Prochnau, which was published in the May 1998 issue of Vanity Fair magazine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Discs: 1\u003cbr\u003eFilm Country: USA\u003cbr\u003eUPC: 883929104673\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAdditional Details\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenre: Action\/Adventure\u003cbr\u003eFormat: DVD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\"...Mr. Crowe radiates a stubborn, heroic solidity...\"\u003cbr\u003eNew York Times - Stephen Holden (12\/08\/2000)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"...A well-paced drama buoyed by exceptional performances....The stoic yet lonely quality Crowe lens his onscreen persona strikes a perfect balance...\"\u003cbr\u003eBox Office - Francesca Dinglasan (02\/01\/2001)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"...PROOF OF LIFE is a first-rate thriller that also manages to be an intimate drama, a journalistic investigation and a political farce...\"\u003cbr\u003eHollywood Reporter - Kirk Honeycutt (12\/01\/2000)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"...Crowe is utterly convincing....With an excellent turn from David Morse...\"\u003cbr\u003eTotal Film - Dan Jolin (04\/01\/2001)\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":null,"offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":18241782663,"sku":"","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1170\/6964\/products\/Proof_of_Life_DVD_2000.jpg?v=1459115278","url":"https:\/\/gbcsales.com\/products\/proof-of-life-dvd-2000","provider":"GBC Sales ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
