1992 blockbuster starring Whitney Houston and Kevin Costner - as a singer superstar and her bodyguard who fall in love. Houston hires Costner when she starts receiving death threats from a stalker. The ex-presidential bodyguard has a past, however. He is wracked by guilt over his inability to protect Reagan from John Hinckley's assassination attempt. He's certainly not going to let a bullet slip past himagain and the draconian security measures he sets up are a shock to Houston. But Costner proves his worth when, in the face of death threats, the singer gives the performance of her life at the Oscar ceremony. Houston brings the house down with her performance of the Dolly Parton song 'I Will Always Love You'.
