Shining Through
1992
**½
Director: David Seltzer
Cast: Melanie Griffith, Michael Douglas, Joely Richardson, Liam Neeson

This multiple Razzie winner is not as bad its reputation might suggest. It's just a very predictable romantic spy drama set in Germany during WW2. Melanie Griffith is rarely convincing in any role, which is probably why the film was so poorly received. Loosely based on the novel by Susan Isaacs.
