Dying Young

“She's given him something nobody else could. A reason to live.”

Hilary O'Neil (Julia Roberts) has just found out her boyfriend betrayed her, and she wants a new job and somewhere else to be. She answers an ad to work as a private nurse for Victor Gaddes (Campbell Scott), a young man with blood cancer. Joel Schumacher follows the two of them as they grow close, while Hilary decides whether she can give herself to someone she knows she will lose.
