Dying Young (1991)
Member Rating:  
Directed by Joel Schumacher, Dying Young was adapted from a novel by Marti Leimbach. When Victor Geddes (Campbell Scott) discovers that he is suffering from leukemia, his wealthy family hires pretty, young Hillary O'Neil (Julia Roberts) to help nurse him through his chemotherapy treatment. As the two struggle through the debilitating effects of Victor's treatment, they fall in love and attempt to make the most of their time together. Campbell Scott's real mother, the late Colleen Dewhurst, plays his "reel" mother in the film. ~ Iotis Erlewine, Rovi

Robert D.

A wonderfully crafted film! The two leads Campbell Scott and Julia Robert's were so real and un- varnished in a story that could have been maudlin but intead rose to a genuine realism! I was impressed and did not expect this quality..funny to see Campbell Scott 's real mother in the film cooacting with the pair...4 stars!

Julia Roberts at her early best. I caught this movie on television on a boring Saturday afternoon. At first I didn't want to watch it but I'm glad I did. It was a wonderful movie.

The first time I saw this movie, I fell in love with Campbell Scott! He and Julia Roberts have a wonderful chemistry together, but it's the music that gets me every time I watch!
