Ridley Scott's 1987 romantic thriller *Someone to Watch Over Me* is now streaming for free on Tubi, giving audiences a chance to rediscover a film that has largely been overshadowed by the director's more famous science-fiction and historical epics. The film showcases a different side of Scott's versatility, blending romance, conspiracy mystery and crime drama into a mature, atmospheric thriller that critics argue has aged well despite being one of his most forgotten works.

The story follows NYPD detective Mike Keegan (Tom Berenger), assigned to protect wealthy socialite Claire Gregory (Mimi Rogers) after she is attacked by a disgruntled artist, Joey Benza (Andreas Katsulas). As Keegan and Claire grow closer, he must confront his loyalty to his wife, Ellie, played by Lorraine Bracco, creating a tense love triangle set against a moody, class-conscious depiction of New York City. The film's cast also includes Mark Moses, and it is noted for Scott's meticulous visual style, using the city itself as a character to underscore the emotional isolation of its two leads.
