Real-life husband and wife Terry Jastrow and Anne Archer star in this intelligent tale of a headstrong young oilman and a beautiful geologist who clash wills on the trail of Texas crude. Noah Beery, Richard Farnsworth and Mary Kay Place co-star in this memorable romantic adventure. The first meeting between John Taylor (Jastrow) and feisty Gail Weston (Archer) is hardly promising. So when their first drilling site turns up dry, Gail packs up and heads north. But the lure of oil discovery is strong and soon she finds herself in partnership with John on their own wildcat well. Amidst the breathtaking beauty of Midland Texas, they share a unique quest...and a tender love affair.
