Synopsis

Sandra Bullock is Lucy, a lonely subway worker infatuated with a gorgeous man she's only seen from afar. After she saves his life, she's mistaken for his fiancée, as he lies unconscious in a hospital. Suddenly, Lucy finds herself in the welcoming arms of the man's family and falling in love with his brother Jack (Bill Pulman). But when the comatose man awakens, Lucy also finds herself in the worst predicament of her life! Hailed by critics and audiences everywhere, it's no wonder 'While You Were Sleeping' is a No. 1 romantic comedy hit.
