Desert Hearts

It’s 1959, and New York English professor Vivian Bell has come to Reno for a quickie divorce. Staying at a dude ranch, she meets the proprietor’s stepdaughter, Cay.

Despite their differences, sparks fly as free-spirited Cay introduces strait-laced Vivian to the wild-west casino scene and the haunting beauty of the desert.
