Directed by Dan Mazer

Comedy

Film Synopsis

Jason Kelly is a young man who takes life seriously - too seriously.  To advance his career with a leading law firm he is even willing to marry his boss's daughter, a strait-laced girl who has all the makings of a fire-breathing dragon.  Jason's well-laid plans of career progression are threatened when his grandfather Dick, a former general, ropes him into accompanying him on a riotous spring holiday in Florida.  The archetypal 'dirty old man', Dick could not be more different from Jason.  He's a man who likes to party and chase after pretty young girls, often in an advanced state of intoxication.  Dick's only ambition is to get as much out of life as he can before he pops his clogs, so Jason has no idea what is in store for him as he snatched away from his stiff-shirted former life.  Different though the two men are, they begin to take a liking to one another and see things from the other's point of view.  For Jason, the holiday introduces him to the pleasures of living - some of which he never knew existed...
