Review of The Intern

The Intern (I) (2015)
9/10
A delightful feel-good movie
22 October 2017
With main actors like Renee Russo and Robert de Niro of the older generation and Anne Hathaway of the younger, supported by a wealth of good actors like Anders Holm, Andrew Rannells, Adam Devine, Zack Perlman, and Christina Scherer (to mention a few) it is not surprising that this film is so good as it is!

Director/writer Nancy Meyers have again made a memorable movie!

What's it about?

Well, to quote the synopsis:

"A retired 70-year-old widower is bored with retired life. He applies to a be a senior intern at an online fashion retailer and gets the position.

The founder of the company is Jules Ostin, a tireless, driven, demanding, dynamic workaholic.

Ben is made her intern, but this is a nominal role - she doesn't intend to give him work and it is just window dressing."

But a lot of things do happen, sad, funny, and very realistic!

A great movie, by a great ensemble and a great director/writer.

Oh, I liked the cinematography, too.Steven Goldblatt was the man behind the camera — for once not a lot of shaky camera work, very rare today!
