留住有情人

一天，美麗的姑娘希拉裏打開房門，卻發現了她的建築工男朋友正在與一個女孩鬼混, 一氣之下她決定與男友分手，不再靠他生活，開始自食其力。雖然媽媽對她的打算並不看好，但希拉裏主意已定。說到做到，第二天，希拉裏就通過報紙上的廣告去一個富有的家庭應聘當了一名護士，專門看護得了白血病的百萬富翁之子維克多。維克多不僅為希拉裏提供食宿，不菲的薪水更是讓希拉裏吃驚不已。

沒多久，希拉裏發現這個工作並不是那麼輕鬆。維克多每次做完化療后，都會有強烈的不良反應，他不停的嘔吐，大喊大叫，痛苦萬分。而看護的工作對於生性善良的希拉裏來說更是一種折磨，她必須看著一個年輕的生命在漸漸枯萎。希拉裏每天細心地照料著維克多，雖然事實上她對看護這項工作一竅不通。

隨著接觸的機會越來越多，希拉裏對維克多有了更深的了解。他九歲那年就失去了母親，脆弱而敏感，不久以後又患上了白血病，生活對他來說並不是那麼公平。而維克多也被希拉裏的美麗善良所吸引，在長期交往中他們真正的相愛了。

為了能給希拉裏一份正常人的愛情，維克多決定隱瞞自己的治療計劃，帶著希拉裏遠赴一個海邊小鎮開始全新的生活。在那裏，二人分享著彼此的生活方式，希拉裏教維克多開車，帶他去酒吧，而維克多也會時不時地給希拉裏來一堂藝術課，還認識了不少熱情善良的朋友。他們度過了一段幸福而開心的日子，維克多的病情似乎也一下子好了起來。

但好景不長，維克多病情的突然惡化，打破了平靜的生活，雖然他一再隱瞞，但細心的希拉裏還是發現了，她執意要帶維克多回到醫院接受治療，美麗的姑娘發誓只要他活一天，她就陪伴他一天。

【導演】喬爾 舒馬赫 (Joel Schumacher)

這部電影的音樂是由新道崛起的配樂高手詹姆士·牛頓·霍華德負責，王牌薩克斯風天王凱尼·吉更是破例首次為原聲碟跨刀助陣，輕盈縹緲的鍵盤，低緩裊繞的薩克斯風襯著管弦氣勢烘托全片感人的愛情氣氛不下於“第六感生死戀”。加上爵士經典名曲《All The Way》作為插曲，輕柔的管弦伴奏，加上幽怨低沉的唱腔，更加感人至深，是一部不可多得的佳作。
