THE BEST EXOTIC MARIGOLD HOTEL

The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel - Finally!    Although my DVR was almost full and the presidential candidates were debating last night, I wanted an escape.  I loved this movie about seven senior citizens who, for various personal and financial reasons, decide to visit India for an extended stay.  They arrive to find Dev Patel as their earnest host in a hot dusty crowded foreign land.  I love that the English actors age naturally, and that a story about retirees isn't forced and slick.  Instead it's quirky and wrinkly and fun.
