After a car accident, the lawyer Scott Davis (Randall Batinkoff) loses his young son and enters in a deep coma for two years. Along this period, the dedicated nurse Angela Martin (Jenna Elfman) treats the patient and feels an attraction for him. When Scott awakes, he feels his body numb and has visions of his son and his father hires Angela to aid Scott. They fall in love for each other, but Scott does not let his son go and falls in coma again."Touched" is a corny, predictable and extremely melodramatic story supported by the gorgeous Jenna Elfman. The unbelievable plot is actually a soap opera with excessive personal dramas in the parallel stories of Scott and Angela's brother, and the final twist after the death of Scott is awful. I like to see movies of the actress Jenna Elfman and the story is also romantic, therefore my vote is six.Title (Brazil): "Páginas de Uma Vida" ("Pages of a Life")

This movie's story is not what I am commenting about it is Jenna Elfman's development from being typecast after 'Dharma & Greg'. She really carries the story and shows her in a new light. I don't we will see her in another sitcom now. Now the story about a female nurse and her male patient falling in love. Now if there had been more substance to the story it would have been better. At the end I even think more should have been added to a possible future of Scott and Angela being together. Jenna's character was a miracle to Randall's character being a caring soul that stayed where his wife did not even try and wait. His son told him to let go and 'touch' the one that really loves him now.

This is a terrible film, although the lighting is nice and some of the furniture is quite stylish. The plot, or to be more specific, premise, is absurd, the dramatic pauses are chasms, and the piano score drowns out the whispered and banal dialog. This is a soap opera film -- the type that usually requires several hankies -- but you'll find yourself shredding Kleenes out of boredom, and spending more time looking at your watch then the screen. Yes, the female lead is lovely. Put her naked in a zombie movie. THe male lead appears as if he escaped from daytime TV, and is none too happy about it. The actor who looks like Ed Begley Jr isn't Ed Begley Jr. Oh, there are two "music video" sequences that went out with "Play Misty for Me." I thought this film might be a pleasant romance with fantasy overtones -- the fantasy was all mine.

I've only recently become a huge fan of Jenna's and when I saw this come up on the TV program guide, I jumped on it...As a parent who lost a child at an early age, this movie rang so true to how we deal with loss and try to find a way to come out from underneath it all.If you have ever lost a child, or have ever had to deal with anyone in a long term coma, you should watch this movie.Don't get me wrong, I'm a guy, but I cried like a baby for hours after watching this one. I would strongly suggest watching with a friend, spouse, or loved one...
