Guarding Tess (feat. Nicolas Cage)

Guarding Tess is my kind of movie, a heartwarming 90s comedy. In this one Cage plays Special Secret Agent in Charge, Doug Chesnic, whose assignment is to guard the widowed ex-first lady Tess Carlisle, played by the infinitely charming Shirley MacLaine.

The trouble is, Doug wants to do something more exciting, and to him, more important than taking care of an old lady. He doesn't see the honor of it, and he doesn't understand how important he really is.

But Tess really likes Doug, despite the ants in his pants, and the two share some of the high and low points of their lives. Guarding Tess is neither a tear jerk or a gag fest. It's in that perfect medium and definitely one to watch with your loved ones, and I do intend to watch it again.
