Nurse Susan (Sissy Spacek) fights to keep Annie, her adopted HIV-positive baby, against the claims of the baby's natural mother, a drug-addicted AIDS sufferer. Helping her is an Irish widow (Joan Plowright) who has become Annie's nanny.

Heartbreak & tears ahead
This may not be the best film ever, it doesn't sufficiently fill out the characters and skips through the plot a little too speedily, but it will pull at the heart strings despite all that.Sissy Spacek is of course superb and believable. Joan Plowright (dodgy Irish accent withstanding) is perfect as the nanny who temporarily helps out but ends up part of the family. The scene where Dorothy (Plowright) discovers the truth about Annie is a master class in the nuances and subtlety of acting-it's all in the eyes!!No spoilers but be prepared with hankies at the ready because if you don't shed tears in the final scenes you must have a heart of stone!!
