The Intern (2015)

From IMDB:

70-year-old widower Ben Whittaker has discovered that retirement isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Seizing an opportunity to get back in the game, he becomes a senior intern at an online fashion site, founded and run by Jules Ostin.

Feel-good films appropriate for everyone are an endangered species. So grab onto this pleasant and not overly sentimental film.

Robert De Niro plays Ben Whittaker, whose role is that of an experienced father figure.

Anne Hathaway plays Jules Ostin, whose role is that of an ambitious, young entrepreneur whose successful two-year-old start-up is experiencing the usual growing pains.

Sub-plots include romances, extra-marital affairs, the difficulties of today’s young people starting their work life, “can a woman have it all?”, etc.

Watching a friendly film free of violence can be relaxing.
