The Guardian is a 2006 action-adventure drama film starring Kevin Costner, Ashton Kutcher, and Melissa Sagemiller. The film was released on September 29, 2006, and was directed by Andrew Davis, director of The Fugitive. The setting for the film is the United States Coast Guard and their Aviation Survival Technician (AST) program.
Ben Randall (Kevin Costner) is the top rescue swimmer at the United States Coast Guard's Aviation Survival Technician (AST) program, who continues to work against regulation past the age of 40. Jake Fischer (Ashton Kutcher) is a hot-shot candidate for AST who was ranked as a top competitive swimmer in high school with scholarships to every Ivy league college, but opted to enlist in the Coast Guard. The film's title is introduced by a mythic tale: people lost at sea often claim they feel a presence lifting them to the surface, breathing life into their bodies while they are waiting for help to arrive. They call this presence "The Guardian."
Ben is confronted by his wife, asking for a separation due to his frequent time at work. He receives a page for an immediate rescue. Out at sea, he loses his rescue team in an HH-60J Jayhawk helicopter crash and while waiting in a survival raft, his best friend, Chief Petty Officer Carl Billings (Omari Hardwick), dies. Shaken, he is forced to either retire or teach at a Coast Guard training school; he reluctantly chooses the latter. Here, Jake arrives as a hopeful AST candidate at "A" school, where Ben is considered a legend with a countless number of saves.

Genres: Drama, Short,I push through the crowd
Without looking back
To leave you behind
Took all i had
And maybe i'm wrong
i might be sorry
But what kind of fool
Would hope for a change
Then write a new word
On a page that stained
and ruined by lie
You shouldn't have told me
I'm the guardian
I am the sole protector
On a heart that's been abused
I won't let love do me in again
I can't just run to the light
Of a fire and jump in
Risk a poison kiss just to have
My thirst unquenched again
Let love do me in
I swallow the urge
To call out your name
The need crashes in
I brace for the wave
And pray it will pass
Not take me under
'cause, I'm the guardian
I am the last defence for
My weakened heart
That still wants you
I won't let love do me in again
I can't just run to the light
Of a fire and jump in
Risk a poison kiss just to have
My thirst unquenched again
Let love do me in
I'm the guardian
I am the sole protector
Of a heart that's been abused
I won't let love do me in again
I can't just run to the light
Of a fire and jump in
Risk a poison kiss just to have
My thirst unquenched again
