Directed by:

Written by:
Gerald Di Pego

Partial Cast:
Jennifer Lopez (Sharon Pogue)
Jim Caviezel (Steven "Catch" Lambert)


This movie was a Jennifer Lopez vehicle. She had never met Jim but was impressed with his performance in the “Thin Red Line” (1998) and insisted he play the part of her love interest (“Catch”). Personally, I thought Jim stole the movie. 😳 When I saw it, I assumed he was the main character. The movie is a sweet love story and Jim is both smokin’ and smoldering hot 🔥🔥

This was the first movie – and first time – I saw Jim. I was totally mesmerized by his eyes and enchanted by his smile. 🥰 Jim imbibed the character “Catch” with an exquisite ethereal quality that Jim portrays better than anyone (maybe, because he has an intense and profound ethereal quality himself 🥰). Jim initially turned the movie down because he felt it would interfere with the prep of an upcoming movie (some of you might know it, “The Count of Monte Cristo”). However, Dennis Quaid called him and suggested he reconsider. So, a big THANK YOU 🤗 to Dennis Quaid. 😊
