Jack & Sarah (1996)

Description

Jack (Richard E. Grant) has it all - a perfect marriage, a successful career and a dream home. But his world crumbles when his wife dies giving birth to their daughter Sarah. Even though he is struggling to cope with his broken heard and a new-born baby, Jack rejects the offers of help from his family (Judi Dench and David Swift) in a bid to prove his independence. Instead, he builds a quirky family of his own when he takes on a down-and-out (Ian McKellen) to be his housekeeper and American waitress Amy (Samantha Mathis) to be his nanny. Once Amy moves in, life becomes a series of mishaps and conflicts with touchingly funny moments as the mismatched characters learn to live with each other. But when Jack`s female boss begins to show more than a professional interest in him, the tension mounts as Amy and Jack begin to realise their true feeling for each other. With a fabulous British cast and the best feel-good ending since `Four Weddings and a Funeral`, `Jack and Sarah` will warm your heart.
