Certainly not a great film, but an okay one at best. However, the wig on Julia Roberts is probably one of the worst I've ever seen in a film. And if it's not a wig- yikes!!!! I find it hard to believe not one person (Producer) watched the dailies and didn't think "gotta' deal with that fake hunk of hair on the leading lady."

it was a fantastic movie i cried while watching it. Julia Roberts was pure and pretty that time, still, beautiful and charming now.but Campbell did change a lot i just couldn't believe he was the same personthis movie was quite touching. i highly recommend you to have a watch of this movie since it's the best romantic movie i've ever seen. I like Julia a lot. i still remembered her first act in Pretty Woman. She's so beautiful!!!! I fall in love with her charm. About Campbell, why did he change so much? i understand people get older and look older in a natural way, but he was that HANDSOME in the movie..anyways, i love this movie, i'd like to watch and watch it again and again

Every time this movie comes on television, I sit in my bedroom and watch it from start to finish as if it was the first time I've seen it. It is a film that focuses on a man, Victor (Campbell) dying of leukemia and his internal struggles of wanting to be carefree and wanting total companionship from the Hillary (Roberts), the woman he hires to take care of him. Eventually, Victor wishes that he could be well so that Hillary can look at him in a different light; however, Victor cannot see pass his disease to allow anyone to be in his life including his dad and Hillary. He abruptly stops his chemotherapy to go live life and die; however, he does not seem to be living it since he so competitive and wanting to be better than anyone else. You want Victor to be cured of the disease and you want him to be less envious of the well people and to stop worrying about death and just live, which is the whole message of the film. Don't be afraid of death since we all will eventually die and no one knows exact time when death will wrapped them in his arm, which is a very powerful message. Great acting from Campbell and Julia. Great cast. Please watch this film and formulate your own opions.

Plot in a nutshell: Hilary O'Neil (Roberts) is an attractive but educational and occupationally challenged young woman becomes involved with a wealthy, well educated young man, Vincent Geddes (Campbell Scott), dying from leukemia. First she becomes his nurse despite no formal medical training, but later the two fall in love, even though they know their love is doomed to fail because of his leukemia.Sounds like a typical chick flick tear-jerker but manages to rise above that. Shows that Joel Schumacher actually is a competent director, something that was unfortunately tarnished and forgotten due to his misfortune of directing "Batman Forever" and "Batman & Robin". Julia Roberts gives what is probably considered one of her better performances as the frustrated young woman who reluctantly becomes the caretaker, but then falls in love with the ill-fated Vincent, only to be devastated by the fact that his poor health ultimately dooms their romance to fail. Vincent is also well played by Campbell Scott. Their chemistry probably helps elevate this above the usual sappy nonsense.
