Synopsis: Director Bruce Beresford's LAST DANCE stars Sharon Stone as Cindy Liggett, a lower-class Southern woman who has spent the previous 12 years on death row for killing two of her teenaged classmates.... Director Bruce Beresford's LAST DANCE stars Sharon Stone as Cindy Liggett, a lower-class Southern woman who has spent the previous 12 years on death row for killing two of her teenaged classmates. Her legal appeals seem to have run their course, and the judge who is charged with reviewing her case has never pardoned a murderer. However, Rick Hayes (Rob Morrow), the lawyer appointed by the clemency board, begins to examine the records of her original trial and believes there's evidence for a stay of execution. The prospect of spending her remaining years in prison does not appeal to the disillusioned Cindy, though, and she's indifferent to Hayes and resigned to her death. Hayes, motivated both by a personal interest in Liggett, as well as a desire to prove himself to his contemptuous, politically connected brother (Peter Gallagher), refuses to accept her passivity and gradually persuades her to fight for her life.

  • Megastar Sharon Stone (CASINO, SPHERE) powers this gripping and suspenseful story of a woman on death row and the one man fighting to save her! Cindy Liggett (Stone) is a convicted killer facing imminent execution ... until a young lawyer, Rick Hayes (Rob Morrow, TV's NORTHERN EXPOSURE, QUIZ SHOW), becomes convinced her case doesn't warrant the death penalty. With time running out, Rick stages an 11th-hour challenge to the enormous political pressures weighing against them! Featuring a first-rate cast, including Peter Gallagher (WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING) and Randy Quaid (INDEPENDENCE DAY), this must-see hit will have you on the edge of your seat ... from beginning to end!
