"If things are not all right...."
He said we needed to
get away for a few hours. Our doggy still showing signs ... and we struggling.
He researched a movie for us to go and forget some of our troubles. Off we went to see The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel!
The attendance at the movie
theater surprised us. It was not the age of the people, movie viewers about our
age, those passing the 55 senior citizen line. What made us look twice at the theater
were the many of them present. Most of the time at that early hour of the day my husband
and I sit there like the last two pins on a pin-cushion.
The movie turned out
to be delightful. I won't spoil it for anyone wanting to experience it. I cried
and I laughed. Usually the signs for me of wonderful writing. I wish I could
tell a story so well.
Sure, I would have
changed some things. People that have written their stories have a way of
wanting to tweak material in their own way. But, many of the themes covered in
the movie so moved me, that I recommend the movie to anyone that would like to
take a trip into other lands ... the visible, touchable, country of India and
the invisible, emotional country of the senior citizen. The senior citizen still yearning for life,
adventure, and love.
This is definitely a
wonderful piece of art. If you go see it I would love to hear what you thought
of it. What did the you within you
think? What beauty did the artist in
you observe?
Best line from the
movie: "Everything will turn out all right at the end. If things are not all
right then, it is not the end!"
Love those words! Shall dance
with them on my hyphen for a while!
To
all my blog readers ... love you.
