PURE PASSION. It frightens, even disgusts some as aNIMALISTIC behavior - an expression of the sexual force that insures the species existence. How to insure its positive GENERATIVE power isn't destroyed by the sheer, mind-erasing power that has eluded human controls.
Plot
In PURE PASSION, the lovers, Steve and Maria, face impossible obstacles to transform their passion into a life-long love. When it is said that "opposites attract, " it does not insure that the initial passion will be enough to withstand the pressures from the inevitable conflicts from differences in values, interests, abilities, and goals. Can COMPROMISES that sustain relationships exist between an atheist- libertarian-artist and a Catholic-conservative-homemaker?
Because of the number and intensity of their differences, no one - family, friends, or therapists - believes Maria and Steve can survive these differences. Yet, they are determined to prove their TWO passions: one for each other, the other for their children (from previous marriages) can become the super glue for life-long bonding.
HOLLYWOODLAND. Steve and Maria lived as if their lives were a movie in which anything was possible when love was strong enough. Their passion began on a blind date at the moment their eyes met and became a runaway locomotive that had everyone trying to put on the brakes. Could THEY, should they?
