The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel follows the experiences of a group of elderly Brits who arrive to take up residence in a newly-opened retirement home in Bangalore, India. Despite its glossy publicity campaign, the Marigold turns out to be rather different from the refurbished luxury hotel advertised in the brochures. However, the move soon begins to pay off as the hotel - and the residents - reveal some unexpected charms. (20th Century Fox Home Entertainment)
