Question by Illini43

Answer: The Lake House

In 1994's "Speed" when madman Howard Payne takes a bus hostage, SWAT member Jack Traven (Keanu Reeves) teams with passenger Annie Wilkes (Sandra Bullock) to save the day. Despite the great onscreen chemistry between Bullock and Reeves, the sequel "Speed 2: Cruise Control" shifted the storyline, with Sandra's character and love interest, Alex Shaw (played by Jason Patric), aboard a hijacked ship.
More than a decade later, Sandra and Keanu gave fans the reunion they had been waiting for when they played Kate and Alex, two strangers living a world apart who are brought together by the exchange of letters in the "The Lake House". Even though they are two years apart, their letters get back to each other in the house they share at different times. They eventually try to meet in Chicago in her present and his future.

Answer: Nurse

In "In Love and War" (1996) Sandra's Agnes nurses the wounded 18-year old Ernest Hemingway back to health after convincing his doctors not to amputate his leg. The movie itself is mostly about the romance that develops between the writer and his nurse, a relationship which eventually has no future.
Even though the movie, directed by Richard Attenborough, took lots of liberties with the facts, it is actually based on a true story. Hemingway's experiences in Italy towards the end of World War 1 served as basis for some of his works, with Agnes von Kurowsky especially present in the character of Catherine Barkley in "A Farewell to Arms".
