Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A 1995 Romantic Comedy directed by Jon Turteltaub and starring Sandra Bullock.Lucy is a lonely transit worker in Chicago who by chance is mistaken for the fiancée of a rich bachelor named Peter (Peter Gallagher) when the latter gets mugged on Christmas Day and falls into a coma. His family are very welcoming to her and she finds herself slowly falling in love with the whole charade... when Peter's younger brother Jack (Bill Pullman) arrives, and suspects that not all is as it appears. Things become even more complicated when Lucy finds herself falling in love with him instead.Bullock received a nomination for a Best Actress Golden Globe for this movie. | |

Arbitrary Skepticism | |
| While You Were Sleeping / int_13eea985 | comment |
Arbitrary Skepticism: The movie never quite reveals why Jack is so suspicious that Lucy is Peter's fiancée, beyond some hints that it's really because he's attracted to her. It initially seems to hint that Jack has met Peter's actual fiancée, but it's eventually made clear he hasn't. In their second-act falling out, Jack does (rather tactlessly) claim that Lucy isn't Peter's type, and while Lucy naturally takes a certain degree of offence to this our meeting with Ashley — his actual (sort-of) fiance — suggests an attraction to rather highly-strung, self-centered and buxom blondes. | |

| While You Were Sleeping / int_88cee6e2 | comment |
Abhorrent Admirer: Joey is a rare male example of this trope, being not quite a Stalker with a Crush but still annoyingly fixated in his onesided affection for Lucy. In Joey's defense, he doesn't seem to be intentionally abhorrent, and his admiration for Lucy is pretty genuine. He's just... weird. | |

A-Cup Angst: Played with in a bit of self-deprecation. Jack asks Lucy what her father was like, and Lucy says dad looked a lot like her, specifying, "Brown hair, flat chest..." | |
