Product Description
Told by his doctor that he has no more than a few months to live, drab British workingman George Bird (Alec Guinness) decides to spend his savings on lodging at a seaside resort. Once there, however, he finds his identity caught between upstairs and downstairs, the guests and the “help.” A droll social commentary as well as an unpredictable dark comedy about life, death, and luck, Last Holiday is one of Guinness’s finest moments.
Can Hardly Wait for This One,
By A Reader/Viewer from Northern California -
I have yet to see the DVD of this splendid Guinness film, but it is most certainly one of his very best. I do happen to have it on VHS and am thrilled it will soon be available on DVD. My only hope is that the transfer has been remastered and will be worthy of this exceptional film. If you are a Guinness fan, or a fan of intellignet, older British films, then don’t miss this one.
