83 Hours Til Dawn is a nail-biting thriller from 1990 that stars Peter Strauss, Robert Urich, and Paul Winfield. The movie takes place over the course of just 83 hours, during which a man named Frank (played by Strauss) must work against the clock to save his wife and daughter from the clutches of a dangerous kidnapper. The movie begins with Frank and his wife, Ellen (played by Karen Austin), enjoying a peaceful night at home with their daughter, Sarah (played by Gwynyth Walsh). However, the tranquility is shattered when three armed men break into the house and take Ellen and Sarah hostage. Frank is left behind with a gunshot wound, and the men demand that he come up with $1 million in ransom money if he wants to see his family again.

With time running out, Frank turns to his friend and former college roommate, Buck (played by Urich). Buck is a successful businessman with connections to some very powerful people, and he agrees to help Frank track down the kidnappers and secure the ransom money. The two men enlist the help of a tough-as-nails police detective named Barnes (played by Winfield), and the trio sets out on a race against time to rescue Ellen and Sarah before it's too late.

As the hours tick by, the tension mounts and the stakes get higher. Frank is desperate to reunite with his family, but he's also haunted by the fact that he may never see them again. Buck is juggling multiple fronts, trying to keep his business and reputation intact while also staying one step ahead of the kidnappers. And Barnes is battling his own demons, including a marriage on the rocks and a strained relationship with his daughter.

Throughout the movie, the audience is taken on a thrilling ride as the three men navigate a maze of clues and red herrings to uncover the identity of the kidnappers and find Frank's family. There are several heart-stopping moments, including a tense standoff with one of the kidnappers and a harrowing car chase through the streets of Los Angeles.
