Equal parts comedy and high-stakes stunts, James Cameron teams up once again with Arnold Schwarzenegger and composer Brad Fiedel to deliver thrills and chills as Harry Tasker tries to keep his espionage career secret from frustrated spouse Helen, played to the hilt in a Golden Globe winning performance from Jamie Lee Curtis. But since it takes two to tange, we're joined by guest filmmaker Alex Sosin ("The Canyon") to revisit this explosive tale of husbands, wives, and double lives.
