What is The Bodyguard about?

A former Secret Service agent grudgingly takes an assignment to protect a pop idol who's threatened by a crazed fan. At first, the safety-obsessed bodyguard and the self-indulgent diva totally clash. But before long, all that tension sparks fireworks of another sort, and the love-averse tough guy is torn between duty and romance.

The Bodyguard is a 1992 American romantic thriller drama film directed by Mick Jackson, and written by Lawrence Kasdan, who produced it with Kevin Costner and Jim Wilson. Starring Costner, Whitney Houston, Gary Kemp, Bill Cobbs and Ralph Waite, the film follows Frank Farmer, a former United States Secret Service agent turned bodyguard, who is hired to protect Rachel Marron, a famous actress and singer, from an unknown stalker. Despite initially disliking each other, Frank saves Rachel from close calls and the two unexpectedly forge a passionate bond.
