The Bodyguard is a 1992 romantic thriller starring Kevin Costner as Frank Farmer, a former Secret Service agent hired to protect superstar singer Rachel Marron, played by Whitney Houston, after she receives threatening messages from a stalker.
Frank is disciplined, cautious, and emotionally guarded, while Rachel is glamorous, independent, and resistant to his strict security methods. As the danger grows, their professional relationship becomes romantic, complicating Frank’s ability to protect her. The film builds toward a tense awards-night climax where Frank must identify and stop the person trying to kill Rachel.
It’s best remembered for its mix of suspense, romance, and Whitney Houston’s iconic soundtrack, especially “I Will Always Love You.”
