Truly, Madly, Deeply is a British romance film, made in 1991 for the BBC's Screen One series. It was written and directed by Anthony Minghella and stars Juliet Stevenson and Alan Rickman, both up-and-coming stars at the time of its making. Minghella has said he wrote the script specifically as "a vehicle for [Stevenson] to express all her talents. She plays piano, likes dancing and has a quirky side to her which she usually can't express in the classical parts she is asked for".
The title comes from a verbal word game played by the main characters in which they challenge each other to take turns repeating and adding to a series of adverbs describing how much they love each other.
Once upon a time there were two people in love, their names were Nina and Jamie. They were even happy enough to be able to live happily ever after, (not often the case) and then Jamie died. Nina is left with a house full of rats and handymen, a job teaching foreigners English and an ache that fills the night sky. Written by Anonymous
Nina is totally heartbroken at the death of her boyfriend Jamie, but is even more unprepared for his return as a ghost. At first it's almost as good as it used to be - hey, even the rats that infested her house have disappeared. But Jamie starts bringing ghostly friends home and behaving more and more oddly.
