Last Chance Harvey

Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson play lonely singles who meet as strangers and spend the film getting to know one another. It may not be the last chance for Hoffman's Harvey, a divorced man who lost his family out of sheer neglect and now writes jingles for an ad agency in a job he hates, but it's pretty close. And he responds to this chance at forming a relationship with the openness of a guy who has spent the last couple of decades closed to the world. It's a simple film and it's nice to see a film about mature people acting like adults. Features commentary by writer/director Joel Hopkins and stars Hoffman and Thompson, and a making-of featurette, plus a bonus disc with the full-screen presentation of the film (for folks without wide-screen TV sets?).
