Ernie Souchak is a guy who thinks communing with nature means sitting on a bench in the city park. Nell Porter is a woman who has spent most of her life alone in the mountains studying birds. The two meet when a reluctant Souchak is sent to the Rocky Mountains to do a story on the reclusive bird lover. Their mutual attraction overcomes their differences as the mismatched couple begins pursuing a highly irregular relationship. [More]

Reviews for Continental Divide
It's very slight and grows less interesting as Belushi's character is tamed, but it's a rare, welcome look a the late, great comedian's romantic side.
Continental Divide charts a love relationship that is hobbed by work.
