Short description
After she discovers that her boyfriend has betrayed her, Hilary O'Neil is looking for a new start and a new job. She begins to work as a private nurse for a young man suffering from blood cancer. Slowly, they fall in love, but they always know their love cannot last because he is destined to die.
What's left behind the scenes
- The first of the paintings that Victor shows Hilary (also shown in the film’s final shot) is Gustav Klimt’s (1862-1918) unfinished work “Adam and Eve” (c. 1917-1918).
- Actors Cary Elwes, Andy Garcia, Mel Gibson, James Spader, and Sir Daniel Day-Lewis all declined the role of Victor.
- Julia Roberts' long red hair is the result of extensions. The actress had a shorter hairstyle during filming.
- Joel Schumacher’s films “Dying Young” and Robert Ellis Miller’s “Breakfast of Champions” were the last in the life of actress Colleen Dewhurst (1924-1991).
