A young man with a terminal illness makes an unconventional request on local television.

ONE LAST THING... is the story of Dylan Jameison, a 16 year-old kid from an industrial town in Pennsylvania, who has terminal cancer, and who's living life as fast as he can. When a charitable organization, "United Wish Givers," grants Dylan a last wish, he initially chooses to go fishing with his football hero, Jason O'Malley. But Dylan soon reveals that his true final wish is to spend a weekend with supermodel Nikki Sinclair. With the help of his two best friends and star football player Jason O'Malley, Dylan spends his last days in Manhattan, trying to fulfill his wish.

The misadventures begin when Miles (Paul Giamatti), an un-recovered divorcé and would-be novelist with a wine fixation, decides to gift old college buddy and washed-up actor Jack (Thomas Haden Church) with a celebratory trip to the vineyards of the Santa Ynez Valley the week before Jack's wedding. The two couldn't be an odder couple. Jack is an over-sexed charmer; Miles is a sad-sack worrier. Jack is looking for his "last taste of freedom"; Miles just wants to taste perfection in a bottle. Jack is fine with cheap Merlot; Miles pines for the elusive, perfect Pinot. Indeed, the only thing they seem to share in common is the same heady mix of failed ambitions and fading youth. And yet, as they make their way up the coast, Miles and Jack soon find themselves drowning in wine and women. Both men careen dangerously and comically toward mid-life crises. Now, the wedding approaches and with it the certainty that Miles and Jack won't make it back to Los Angeles unscathed or unchanged...if they get back there at all.

Two men reaching middle age with not much to show but disappointment, embark on a week long road trip through California's wine country, just as one is about to take a trip down the aisle.
