Million Dollar Arm ***

Middle-aged jingle writer Harvey (Dustin Hoffman) flies into London having just lost his job, in order to reconnect with his estranged daughter Susan (Liane Balaban) in time for her wedding.

THE cheeky Dustin Hoffman and the croaky Emma Thompson prove that you don’t have to be 16 to have a fine romance on screen these days with Last Chance Harvey (USA/12A/92mins), a charming little film all about falling in love just when everything else in your life seems to be falling apart.
