In the film, the seven old people are forced by emotional, financial and other mixed reasons to get rid of their frustration and predicament in the UK, and they are lured by a tempting hotel advertisement to India, or intentionally or unintentionally to find them. Hold a trace of fantasy relief. At the beginning of the film, the problems encountered by the seven elderly people are simply explained with a concise plot. They all embark on a journey to India. From flying to India to finding a hotel, it can be seen that every The different personalities of the characters seem to hint at the personality factors that the old people make different choices in the ending.
Personally, I think the stories of the three people "Graham" and "Douglas and Joan" in the film are the most important part of the plot of the film. Graham has never married for decades because of his guilt towards Indian gays when he was young. He came to India for an apology and finally died of illness in India. However, he still found his lover and expressed his inner guilt that he had hidden for decades. And unforgettable, no one knows what they talked about all night, but what he got was definitely not the resentment of his lover, and he passed away peacefully! There seems to be no passion in the life of "Douglas and Joan", but it has passed several decades in peace and stability. The key lies in the easy-going and easy-going Douglas' tolerance to the stubborn and slightly extreme Joan. In their later years, maybe they are not satisfied with each other for decades, maybe this is why they have their own little ambiguity and derailment in India. The dramatic thing is that after decades of restraint, they finally get stuck at the airport. During the process of waiting on the road, it fell apart, and the excited Joan told the truth of the relationship between the two parties, which was considered a good gathering and a good break!
The ending is perfect, everyone got rid of the psychological bondage that has shackled them for many years, and found their true love and freedom! They wavered on the road of finding liberation, but because of the influence and encouragement of others, they persevered and finally found their own belonging! Although they are no longer young, they have the idea of ​​not giving up at the last moment, and they have never given up their original passion and dreams because of the sinking and tempering of the years! They are not chasing their dreams, they just haven't forgotten the problems of the past and are looking for the answers that they already have in their hearts. What if you are old? ! At least they have searched and found it, and if they have a dream, they must practice it! Courage is actually motivation!
The film also tells us that not only China's real estate and travel advertisements are flashy, but India is also the same, and the British who look like gentlemen are also greedy for petty profits! India's caste system is still deeply rooted and determines the fate of many people's lives!
The Foreign Affairs Hotel is a very worth watching film. Although the protagonists of the film are almost a group of elderly people, the meaning of the story is very transparent. Some things can be done best when you are young. It’s not too late to do it again when you are old and conscious, but if you still don’t do it when you get old, you can only let regrets erode with your life and regret for the rest of your life! So let's keep chasing the unforgettable wish!
