The Jewel of the Nile is a 1985 action-adventure film and the sequel to the successful 1984 film Romancing the Stone. The film stars Michael Douglas, Kathleen Turner, and Danny DeVito, and was directed by Lewis Teague.
The movie starts with Joan Wilder (played by Kathleen Turner) struggling with writer's block and feeling unfulfilled with her life. Her boyfriend Jack Colton (Michael Douglas) is now a successful businessman, but he's bored with his life and misses the excitement of their previous adventures.
Meanwhile, Omar (Spiros Focas), a wealthy Arab ruler, offers Joan a large sum of money to write his biography. Joan is reluctant at first, but eventually agrees to the job and travels to the Middle East with Jack and their friend Ralph (Danny DeVito).
Once they arrive, they discover that Omar has ulterior motives and plans to use Joan as a bargaining chip to help him regain power. Joan and her companions find themselves caught up in a dangerous political game and must fight for their lives against Omar's forces.
As expected, the movie has plenty of action, including car chases, gunfights, and sword fights. But it also has a strong romantic subplot, as Joan and Jack struggle to reconcile their feelings for each other with their desire for adventure and independence.
Overall, The Jewel of the Nile is an enjoyable and entertaining film that successfully continues the story of Romancing the Stone. It may not have quite the same level of excitement and originality as its predecessor, but it's still well worth watching for fans of action-adventure films.
