"Last Chance Harvey" -- A Wonderful Time at the Movies

For anyone interested in a terrific date movie, a nice commentary on the inherent hopefulness of the human condition, or lonely and in need of a pick me up, I heartily recommend seeing Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson in the newly released "Last Chance Harvey."

A movie about the love we all deserve but only seldom have the chance to obtain, this one is a winner. Dustin Hoffman is terrific as a man who slowly comes to the realization that he may have come to the end of the line, both professionally and romantically. And Emma Thompson is her usual radiant self as a similar lost soul who desires love and happiness but is unsure of how to go about it. Kudos to writer/director Joel Hopkins.

I left the theater feeling good about myself and the human condition. What more can you ask for of a film? Heartily recommended to one and all!
