Alvin, portrayed by Oscar Nominee Seymour Cassel, makes life hell for everyone else around him as a widower confined to his hospice bed. Old and bitter, Alvin is content to waste away the last of his disappointing life at Valley Meadow Hospice. He simply wants to be left alone but his wish is not granted when terminally ill Kevin (Johnny Whitworth) becomes his roommate. Young and full of “life”, Kevin refuses to squander the precious moments he has left. Deeply in love, Kevin and his girlfriend Sarah (Lacey Chabert) are devoted to making their days fun and meaningful. Encouraged to stand up for his life by his nurse Evelyn (Alfre Woodard) and stirred by the young couples zest for life, Alvin takes a chance and pursues Valerie (Adrienne Barbeau). With Valerie, Alvin confronts his fear, loneliness and regret and learns to love – maybe for the first time. Reach for Me attempts to tackle end of life issues, by mixing comedy and drama. It's ensemble cast includes many award winners including Oscar Nominee Alfre Woodard〔(Alfre Woodard - Awards )〕 and Golden Globe Nominee Adrienne Barbeau.〔(Adrienne Barbeau - Awards )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Reach for Me」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
