Workaholic Lisa (Mary Stuart Masterson) long ago shut down emotionally, retreating into a shell during her painful childhood. Career is foremost in her mind and romance the very last thing. That changes when she receives a stunning bouquet of flowers from a secret admirer. When she asks the florist, Lewis (Christian Slater), where they came from, he admits they are from him. Lewis sweeps Lisa off her feet and seems to be her perfect man. But he, too, harbors a painful past.

Don't blame the leads, but the movie has less emotional resonance than an old FTD florist commercial with Merlin Olsen.

Bed of Roses tells a sappy story about two sad sacks who get more or less what they deserve -- each other.

A good, even beautiful, premise, but this romance is stronger on ambience than development.

This is definitely a family friendly movie. All in all I enjoyed it, I did think her freaking out about his proposal was just a way to add that last bit of drama, but it ended in a satisfying way.
