GEORGIA BYRD (Queen Latifah) lives a small life tucked inside big dreams. A shy cookware salesperson for a New Orleans retail outlet, she handles knives and skillets with the flair of a master chef. But when Georgia learns her days are numbered, she throws caution to the wind and embarks on a dream holiday vacation to a grand resort in Europe.
There, thinking she has nothing to lose, Georgia undergoes a metamorphosis ... and her transformation affects everyone around her.
VENERATED CHEF
Georgia's newly uninhibited personality shakes up staff and guests alike, including a venerated chef (Gerard Depardieu), as well as a retail magnate (Timothy Hutton), who becomes convinced she's a rival intent on
sabotaging his business plans.
From snowy slopes to spectacular spas, delectable dinners to midnight balls, Georgia is going to live a lifetime of fun in just a few weeks ...
Last Holiday also features the talents of rapper LL Cool J, Alicia Witt and Giancarlo Esposito. Wayne Wang directs from screenplay by Jeffrey Price and Peter S. Seaman.
