Joel Hopkin’s “Last Chance Harvey,” starring the affable pairing of Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson, landed itself a wonderful trailer today. It tells the story of a man (Hoffman) who is down on his luck, just about to lose his job and possibly his sanity until he meets a women (Thompson) in one of those chance meetings in life that, from that moment onwards, leaves him a changed man forever, for the better. So I assume, anyway. It seems heart-warming enough, without being too sappy or manipulative but rather quietly charming, one that I expect could score some love at the Oscars in terms of the acting categories, but only time will tell. “Last Chance Harvey” will play at the AFI Festival on the 8th of November, move on to a limited release on the 26th of December and expand on the 26th of January. Looks like one to keep an eye on for sure. – [from Fataculture]
