This is a movie that describes the elderly. People with different identities, different occupational situations, and different physical health enter old age. The same is that there is anxiety, helplessness, helplessness and hope for change. Originally, what I expected was continuous laughter and a lot of embarrassing things, but after reading it, I was a little worried and sighed~~
Under the arrangement of the screenwriter, these very distinctive people saw a fairyland-like clean, dreamy, simple and natural India. Hotel advertisement, so we met at the airport. Later, the plane was delayed, but with the help of members of the justices, it still reached the destination. After arriving at the destination, I found that the difference between the restaurant and the advertisement on this advertisement is not so big. So here is the bifurcation point of the plot.
In order not to spoil the fun, I won't reveal too much.
Some people are troubled and depressed, thinking about leaving and finally liberating themselves and their loved ones for many years; some people break the old shackles of decades and try to change and adapt; some people find dignity and self from slowly adapting to life; some people work hard Looking for childhood regrets, trying to make amends and passing away peacefully; some people get rid of false clichés and foreign objects and bravely pursue what they expect; some people chase after a circle to find their own more possibilities; some people are under the rules of morality Always adhere.
I had always disliked the wife who had been complaining, resisting, secretly cheating, and selfish, but when she finally confessed her shortcomings and encouraged her husband, she also had admiration for her. Know how hard it is to admit to yourself.
This group of seniors made me think about my future, saying that far is far, and that near is also near. I asked myself, am I now dealing with my day-to-day life or am I looking forward to finding myself? At least half of them are doing ordinary jobs day by day to support themselves and their families, while the other half are eager to be free and have turbulent hearts but can't do whatever they want. As a social person, after all, people have to fulfill some social responsibilities, don't they? And I don't want to wait until I'm old to find myself. . . . .
There are also American democratic ideas implanted in the film, which encourages traditional Indians to fall in love freely, although it is a bit fake~~
In general, many are too bad, and it is a good film that makes people think~~

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel quotes

  • Jean: The whole thing is actually tremendously exciting. Not just getting on the plane, but getting on the plane and turning left.

    Norman Cousins: Turning left?

    Jean: First class. And home in time for our fortieth wedding anniversary. We haven't quite decided how to mark the occasion.

    Madge Hardcastle: Perhaps a minute's silence.

  • Evelyn: You're still here.

    Douglas Ainslie: I... I missed the plane.

    Evelyn: What about Jean?

    Douglas Ainslie: She didn't. I had... I had quite an interesting night actually. I... I met the same... um... taxi driver, but this time I let him take me to his brother's hotel, which turned out to be less of a hotel and more of a... more of a brothel really. And... and they gave... they gave me this pipe, said it was apple tobacco but that's not what they called it when I was a student, so... so I made my excuses and left. I needed time to think. This city at night is extraordinary. I think the apple tobacco helped... probably.
