Blow Out

Blow Out is a 1981 thriller film, written and directed by Brian De Palma. The title and themes derive from and are an homage to Antonioni's 1966 film Blowup. The film stars John Travolta as Jack Terry, a movie sound effects technician from Philadelphia who, while recording sounds for a low-budget horror film, accidentally captures audio evidence of the possible assassination of the Pennsylvania governor who was planning to run for President. The supporting cast included Nancy Allen (in the role of Sally, a prostitute who was riding in the governor's limousine when he was killed), Dennis Franz as sleazy private investigator Manny Karp, a Zapruderesque figure, and John Lithgow as the coldblooded assassin Burke aka 'The Liberty Bell Strangler'
