"The River Wild"

Meryl Streep and David Strathairn play a fueding married cople from Boston who take their son on a white water trip sown a western river that Streep knows from when she worked there as guide when young. Along the way they run into bad guy Kevin Bacon and his acomplice who have robbed a cattle auction and are fleeing down the river in another raft. The two parties clash often and periodically get separated and dunked in the rapids. A different type of outing for Streep, who does hardly any "action" roles. The boy, BTW, is the same kid who's in "Jurassic Park" from the year before. The rapids scenes are as good as those in "Deliverence". Enjoyable if far fetched.
