Ford plays a successful lawyer, Henry Turner, who has little time for his wife or daughter, until one night when he receives gunshot wounds to the head and chest, resulting in brain damage. One bullet hit the right frontal lobe, which controls some behavior and restraint. The more serious injury, however, was the bullet to the chest, which hit the sub-clavian artery and caused excessive internal bleeding and cardiac arrest. Henry experienced anoxia (also known as hypoxia), lack of oxygen to the brain, which caused most of the damage. Henry survives, but he initially cannot move or talk or remember anyone or anything. He regains movement and speech with help from Bradley, his physical therapist. Henry returns home and discovers that he did not like the person he was before. He forges a new relationship with his wife and daughter and they are all the more happy for it.
Annette Bening won the newcomer of the year London Film Critics Circle award[1]; and the film was nominated for two Young Artist Awards: best family motion picture - drama, and best young actress starring in a motion picture for Mikki Allen.
The movie was parodied in the Rugrats episode "Regarding Stuie" in which Stu receives a head injury and temporarily forgets who he is.
