British Film from the Nineties

[Mark Reutens]

Can anyone remember a british film released in the mid nineties, which had a couple falling in love, and then the female partner getting very sick (maybe MS or something degenerative), and he having to look after her? It was a really moving film, and I wanted to get a copy ?

How about "Shadowlands" (1993). C.S.Lewis (Anthony Hopkins) falls in love with American fan Joy Gresham (Debra Winger). He then looks after her when she develops a terminal illness.

Thanks for the answers.  Unfortunately, neither of the two films suggested is the one I was struggling to remember.  It was a bit more of an independent sort of film.  released probably 1995..Hope someone can remember, or even suggest a way to find?

They was a film called "Go Now" with Robert Carlyle in except he was the one with MS. It was a BBC film...

Try "Wide Eyed And Legless" - starred Julie Walters as Diane Longden
