Emily (Kyra Sedgwick) never wanted a house and she never wanted a husband. More than anything, she wanted a child. And not just any child, she wanted an exceptional one. When a travelling businessman (Campbell Scott) passes through her life one night, she conceives a boy and names him Paul, her little 'Loverboy'.

Her journey through life is shaped by her relationship with her indifferent parents Sybil (Marisa Tomei) and Marty (Kevin Bacon). When she meets Mark (Matt Dillon) she has an opportunity to provide a father-figure for Paul, but can the love she has for her son be shared with anyone else?

Also starring Sandra Bullock (Miss Congeniality, Crash) and Oliver Platt (Cassanova, Kinsey), and based on the celebrated novel by Victoria Redel, this moving drama of a neglected daughter who becomes a possessive mother is an emotional journey into the heart and mind of a woman who simply loved too much.
