Last Chance Harvey


Just before flying to London for his daughter's wedding, Harvey (Hoffman) is canned from his jingle-writing job in NYC, officially making him a washed-up jazz musician. Adding insult, the ex-wife (Baker) breaks the news that stepdad (Brolin) will be giving away the bride. Meanwhile, Kate (Thompson), an interviewer for a government agency in London, is having a decidedly poor time in the dating world. Of course fate brings the two together in the airport where Harvey is a complete jerk and then later as they end up the only two patrons in a local pub. Harvey attempts an apology and poof, the magic begins. An endearing romance ensues as the two pros lift an otherwise forgettable story.

The combination of Dustin Hoffman as a middle aged American commercial jingle writer and Emma Thompson as a lonely British statistician in her late 40s are what makes Last Chance Harvey the masterpiece it is. DON'T MISS IT!
