Precious Find ★★ 1996 (R)
In 2049 there's a new gold rush—this time into outer space. The moon's enclosed city is a staging area for mining operations throughout the solar system and draws the attention of three prospectors: Ben, who can “smell” gold, Crille (Hauer), who has a hightech treasure map, and Sam (James), who owns a space hauler. They're all anxious to cash in when a newly discovered asteroid turns out to be a literal gold mine as is claim jumper Camilla (Chen). 90m/C VHS . Rutger Hauer, Brion James, Harold P. Pruett, Joan Chen; D: Philippe Mora; W: Jane Ubell, John Remark; C: Walter Bal; M: Roy Hay.
