Indecent Proposal (1993)

Indecent Proposal is a 1993 American drama film based on the novel of the same name by Jack Engelhard, in which a married couple's relationship is put into turmoil by a stranger's offer of a million dollars for the wife to spend the night with him. It was directed by Adrian Lyne and stars Robert Redford, Demi Moore, and Woody Harrelson.^[1][2] The film was a box office success, despite earning mostly negative reviews from critics, grossing nearly $267 million worldwide on a $38 million budget.

High school sweethearts David and Diana Murphy are a married couple who travel to Las Vegas, hoping they can win enough money to finance David's fantasy real estate project.

After gambling away all of their savings on roulette, they encounter billionaire John Gage. Gage is attracted to Diana and offers them one million dollars to allow him to spend a night with her. After a difficult night, David and Diana decide to accept the offer, and a contract is signed the next day. Gage flies Diana to a private yacht where he offers her a chance to void the deal and return to her husband if he loses a toss of his lucky coin. Gage calls it correctly, and she spends the night with him.

Although he had hoped to forget the whole incident, David grows increasingly insecure about his relationship with Diana, consumed with a fear that she remains involved with Gage; this insecurity is heightened by the fact that Diana discovers that Gage has bought their home/property while it was going into foreclosure. As tension between them builds, David and Diana separate.

Gage renews his advances on Diana. Although she initially resists, Diana eventually consents to spending time with him and a relationship develops. David, meanwhile, hits rock bottom and then slowly pulls his life back together. When Diana files for divorce, David signs the divorce papers and gives the million dollars away.

Diana tells Gage "I think we should talk". Gage, perhaps sensing what is coming, recognizes that, even if Diana stayed with him, their relationship would never achieve the intensity she had with David. Realizing that she longs to return to her husband, Gage makes up a story that she was only the latest in a long line of "million-dollar girls". Diana understands that Gage is doing this to make it easy for her to leave. Gage gives her his lucky coin, which is revealed to be double-headed. She returns to the pier where David proposed seven years earlier, and he is there. She sits on the opposite side from him, and they join hands.
