“The Temp” (1993)

Portland at the Movies

It’s telling that this supposedly sexy thriller is just bland enough that we kept referring to the star as “William Hurt” instead of the actual star Timothy Hutton. In any case, “The Temp” was released in the wake of the Basic Instinct and several other grabs at the erotic mystery such as Body of Evidence, Sliver, and Disclosure. So will “The Temp” earn a permanent spot in our list of good movies made in Portland, or will it see itself through the door once we’re done with it?
