The discovery that she has a terminal illness prompts introverted department store saleswoman Georgia Byrd to reflect on what she realizes has been an overly cautious life. With weeks to live, she withdraws her life savings, sells all her possessions and jets off to Europe where she lives it up at a posh hotel. Upbeat and passionate, Georgia charms everybody she meets, including renowned Chef Didier. The only one missing from her new life is her longtime crush Sean Matthews.
Editor's Verdict
"While the movie shares thematic overlap with Christmas movies (transformation, generosity), the core narrative of 'Last Holiday' is explicitly tied to the protagonist having a terminal illness and deciding to live life to the fullest before she dies. The setting, plot drivers, and resolution are driven by her illness and European travel, not the Christmas season. The film is a remake of the 1952 film 'The Happy Road to Travel' and does not feature significant Christmas elements."
