The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel

Jace 2022-03-26 09:01:06

Seven elderly British men in their twilight years travelled to Jaipur, India for a holiday. Among the seven, the empathetic Evelyn (Judi Dench) tries to live independently after losing her husband; Justice Graham (Tom Wilkinson), who suffers from heart disease, is carrying The unspoken secret; Douglas (Bill Nighy) and Joan hope to improve the rigid relationship between husband and wife; old urchin Norman and old Maggie are always looking forward to having an affair; as for Muriel (Maggie Maggie Smith (played by Maggie Smith), she always looks a little cold and mean while waiting for surgery.
The seven people with their own concerns were attracted by the exotic advertisements and stayed at the Marigold Hotel by coincidence. But the real hotel is not as comfortable as advertised, and this trip to India's soul is not as good as expected. In an unfamiliar country, everyone started new thinking about the rest of their lives, and they didn't want to regret lifelong hard work toward a happy ending.
The film is based on the novel These Foolish Things by British author Deborah Moggach.

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.
