Truly Madly Deeply (1991)

Directed by
Anthony Minghella

Plot outline:
Death can be a hard thing to face, and surviving a loved one is particularly difficult, especially if the death is unexpected. This is what faces Nina (Juliet Stevenson) in the first feature film from Anthony Minghella (The English Patient, The Talented Mr. Ripley). Nina is a language instructor grieving the loss of her husband, Jamie (Alan Rickman). She is surrounded by caring family, coworkers, neighbours and handymen, and also sees a therapist to help deal with her grief. When it seems that Nina can’t take it any more, Jamie reappears as suddenly as he died and settles back into her life and her house. Making himself at home, he invites over his friends (all dead of course) to watch videos and enlists their help in rearranging the furniture. Outside the house, Nina’s life continues moving forward and soon she finds she is stretched between the present and the past. [source: Cheryl DeWolfe, apolloguide.com]
