[00:08] Come and spend your autumn years in an Indian
[00:11] palace. This is the day. It's a luxury
[00:16] development where all residents are in their golden
[00:18] years. Like the coast of Florida. Yeah, but with more
[00:22] elephants. Flight 247 to Dehli is boarding now.
[00:29] Would you like some of this? I believe it's called aloo
[00:31] paratha. No, if I can't pronounce it I don't want to eat
[00:34] it. This your first time in India? Yes. I thought it would
[00:37] be alright. It's going to be extraordinary.
[00:46] Welcome to the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. Prepare to
[00:47] be amazed. There's an Indian in there. I want to stay
[00:47] at the other hotel. The one that's in the brochure. In
[00:47] India we have a saying everything will be alright in the
[00:48] end. So if it's not alright, it is not yet the end. [ MUSIC ]
[00:48] This is a
[00:58] new and different world. The challenge is to cope with
[01:00] it, and
[01:12] not just cope, but thrive. Woo- hoo! I
[01:19] got a job. My first ever. I'm about to make the first
[01:22] public speech of my life. Imagine them naked. I'm
[01:23] afraid I gave that up several years ago.
[01:29] There you are. Good to see you. Really? No, of course
[01:31] not. [ LAUGH ] Would you like me to
[01:35] not fix that chair? How can you bear this country.
[01:39] What do you see that I don't? Well, the light, colors,
[01:42] smiles, it teaches me something. Ha ha.
[01:48] She wants to thank you for your kindness. I haven't
[01:49] been kind. You are the only one that acknowledges
[01:52] her. I'm not eating that. I have a dream to create a
[01:55] home for
[01:59] the elderly so wonderful that they would simply refuse
[02:02] to die. [ SOUND ] Oh. This man is dead. We must
[02:05] preserve his dignity and. [ UNKNOWN ] Did I nod off?.
[02:06] India like life itself I suppose is about what you bring to
[02:06] it. I'm really loving this. [ LAUGH ] You
[02:18] alright? I just want a glass of water. That was a gin and
[02:21] tonic. I know that now. The Best Exotic Marigold
[02:25] Hotel. You're not worried about the danger of having
[02:27] sex at your age? If she dies, she dies.
