The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel Movie (2011)
British retirees travel to India to take up residence in what they believe is a newly restored hotel. Less luxurious than advertised, the Marigold Hotel nevertheless slowly begins to charm in unexpected ways.

Evelyn, newly widowed, wants low-cost experience, Graham seeks a long-ago love, Douglas and Jean have lost their pension in a family investment, Muriel needs cheap hip surgery, Madge seeks a rich husband, and Norman is chasing women. India affects each in different ways, enchanting Douglas and Evelyn while driving Jean deeper into bitterness. Their host, young Sonny, has dreams but little cash or skill; he also has a girlfriend whom his mother dismisses. Stories cross and discoveries await each one.

I really love the movie, so captivating, entertaining wiht a lot of heart. And the casts are superb. In the end all things will be alright. x
I like this film. The plot is: several elderly people under definite circumstances ( lack of money) had to leave for an unknown for them country seeking for best life. And then we see how each of them could or not accept other culture and traditions... It reminds me my life, and I like tolerance and courage of Judi ( I hope I will overcome everything like she did)...
