Perhaps on the scale of love, gods and humans are equal. In order to experience the joys and sorrows of the world, the Grim Reaper transformed himself into a handsome young man named Joe Black (Brad Pitt) and landed in the home of news media tycoon William Parrish (Anthony Hopkins). By chance, Joe fell in love with William's little daughter Susan (Claire Forlani) and tasted the sweetness of love in the world. What kind of unusual adventures will this childlike, innocent, peanut butter-obsessed Grim Reaper have with his beautiful, dignified girl with deep night eyes? They composed love into music, and invite you and me to listen together.
