For the Love of Jessee

Dr. Luke Matthews (Randy Wayne) is happily married to his wife Jessica (Bre Blair) who is pregnant with their first. His patient Sage Smith (Mandahla Rose) loses her pregnancy. He loses Jessica while giving birth. His estranged mother Katharyn (Adrienne Barbeau) tries to help, but he rejects a live-in nanny. After a chance encounter, Luke hires Sage. Both are struggling with their losses.

It is a simple heartfelt movie. I would not go the romance route, but it is a very simple movie. There is some goodness in its simplicity. Everybody is nice. Even Katharyn's misguided efforts are for the good of the family. This is simple and fine.

Loved the characters SO MUCH! Such a heartwarming movie!

The preview makes it look great but it falls so flat. There are so many little details that the writers didn't think through that just make it feel like a third rate movie. The medical details are so off. Overall just a meh movie.

This movie is so refreshing. It's a story of real life issues: love, loss, relationships, and 2nd chances. The casting, I thought, was well done. Randy Wayne as Dr. Luke Matthews (you have to love the guy), Mandahla Rose as Sage Smith (the Dr's nanny & new love interest), & Adrienne Barbeau as Katharyn (Luke's mother). I enjoyed the development of each character and the transitions that occurred in their lives and relationships...Watch it, I think you will like it.

This is the same story as another 1995 film called Jack & Sarah. Jack & Sarah starred Richard E. Grant and was a wonderful film. Search it out. This update is good but the medical scenes were embellished for dramatic effects.
