An English movie with an Indian touch

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

The background of the movie is Jaipur and Udaipur in India. Because I just returned from traveling around India, I was very excited to see the various landmarks in the movie. And the movie truly reflects the whole picture of India: the environment may be crowded and dirty, but the people are friendly and peaceful.

I really like the period when Doug meets Evelyn at the end of the movie. The absolute British low-key treatment:
Doug: When do you finish work?
Eve: I'll get back around 5.
Doug: Tea time?
Eve: Yes.
Doug: How do you take it?
Eve: With a little milk.

How smooth, how subtle, how English.

I also like Sonny’s classic quote: Everything will be alright in the end.

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel quotes

  • Douglas Ainslie: I invested our, well, my retirement money in our daughter's Internet company. She assured me that as soon as the startup actually, um, started up and the conversion from virtual to actual became sufficiently viable, then she'd be able to pay it all back.

    Evelyn: I'm not sure I understand what most of those words mean.

    Douglas Ainslie: Well, it turns out neither did she.

  • Evelyn: [about their new environment] Initially you're overwhelmed. But gradually you realize it's like a wave. Resist, and you'll be knocked over. Dive into it, and you'll swim out the other side.
