Vi presento Joe Black (1998)
William "Bill" Parrish è un uomo che ha tutto dalla vita: denaro, successo e una splendida famiglia. La sua idilliaca realtà viene improvvisamente sconvolta dall'arrivo di uno sconosciuto. Quest'ultimo è la Morte, venuta sulla Terra perché incuriosito dalle emozioni riguardo all'amore decantate da Bill, che alla fine del viaggio porterà con sé.La morte viene presentata da Bill come Joe Black che subito viene apprezzato dalla famiglia. La secondogenita di Bill, Susan, aveva conosciuto il ragazzo di cui la Morte ha preso il corpo e aveva iniziato a provare qualche sentimento nei suoi confronti. Susan però non riconosce in Joe il dolce giovane che aveva incontrato alla tavola calda e se ne allontana; trascorrendo del tempo assieme a lui, però, impara ad apprezzarlo e inizia così una grande storia d'amore.
