Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson star in "Last Chance Harvey"
Overture Films
Academy Award winners Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson reunite in Last Chance Harvey, a hopeful romance that celebrates new beginning -- at any age.
Harvey Shine (Hoffman) is a New Yorker on the verge of losing his dead-end job as a jingle writer. Warned by his boss (Richard Schiff) that he has just one more chance to deliver, Harvey goes to London for a weekend to attend his daughter's (Liane Balaban) wedding but promises to be back on Monday morning to make an important meeting -- or else.
Drowning his sorrows at the airport bar, Harvey strikes up a conversation with Kate (Thompson), a slightly prickly, 40-something employee of the Office of National Statistics. Kate, whose life is limited to work, the occasional humiliating blind date and endless phone calls from her smothering mother (Eileen Atkins), is touched by Harvey, who finds himself energized by her intelligence and compassion. The growing connection between the pair inspires both as they unexpectedly transform one another's lives.
"Last Chance Harvey" opens in select cities on December 25th and nationwide on January 23, 2009.
It's rated PG-13.
