The Locket is a 2002 Hallmark Hall of Fame psychological drama film starring Vanessa Redgrave.

Esther (Redgrave) is a disillusioned and bitter nursing home resident who shares much with her attendant, Michael (Willett), in terms of personal sacrifices that they have both made.

Michael has spent the last several years of his life looking after his cancer-stricken late mother and now faces rejection from his fiancée's father.

Michael makes it his mission to improve the last years of Esther's life.

She vouches for him when he's accused of a murder in the nursing home, and helps put him back in contact with his fiancée and estranged father.
