Last Chance Harvey 
Harvey Shine (Dustin Hoffman) is a lonely commercial composer whose outdated classical scores are being replaced with more modern music. He travels to England to attend his daughter's wedding, only to watch her be given away by her stepfather, who, she informs him, has been a bigger part of her life (ouch). Meanwhile, Kate (Emma Thompson) is trapped in her routine existence, going through the motions of an unrewarding job taking surveys at Heathrow airport. When Harvey loses his job and misses his flight back to L.A., he meets Kate in the airport bar and they strike up a quarrelsome conversation. This may be Harvey and Kate's last chance to reverse their life patterns, as well as fall in love. With such a strong cast, including not only heavyweights Hoffman and Thompson, but Eileen Atkins as Kate's paranoid mother and Kathy Baker as Harvey's ex-wife, one would think the film would be a recipe for success. However, the downfall is that there's not much plot to speak of and the characters are too dull to hold your interest past two minutes. Action lovers and teenagers need not apply.
