Return to Me (DVD)

Return to Me (2000) starring David Duchovny, Minnie Driver, Carroll O'Connor, Robert Loggia, Bonnie Hunt. Directed by Bonnie Hunt. A contractor named Bob (Duchovny) loses his wife in a car accident, and her heart is transplanted into a stranger named Grace (Driver). Naturally, Bob and Grace are destined to meet -- it's just a question of when and where. The dramatic tension arises because Grace is extremely shy about revealing that she has had a heart transplant. And the tension is ratcheted up a notch when Grace, by chance, learns that the heart she has is from Bob's dead wife. After she tells him, will Bob be able to look past the conflict and still love Grace? What do you think? Duchovny and Driver have convincing chemistry on screen. This movie has no English subtitles, but it does have closed captions. Grade: B+
