a drama about loneliness turning into hope
10 November 2009
I would describe this movie as a drama aimed for the older crowd. It's basically about 2 lonely older people whom have a chance encounter, and they both feel a connection and have hope they can become a couple. Harvey has come to London from America to see his daughter get married. He doesn't have a close relationship with her and only plans to stay for the ceremony then leave. Well, he misses his flight and is informed by his boss he's been let go. So, he meets Kate at a bar in the airport. They 2 talk and he follows her around the rest of the day. She insists he goes back to his daughter's wedding reception. He says he'll go if she will come. The 2 have a great time. He gets a call saying he has his job back, but turns his boss down. Kate is a reason for him to stay in London, and the 2 have a happy ending with hope of a future together.

Thompson and Hoffman were OK together, but he is a little old for her. And their whole meeting was a little too fairy tailish, but it's Hollywood.

FINAL VERDICT: It was a sweet movie with a happy ending. I recommend it if you want to see a romance film.
