The other day I went to see The Intern, starring Robert De Niro and Anne Hathaway. While coming out of the theatre, one-hour fiftyish minutes later, every single person had the same expression; Misty eyes and a goofy smile slapped on the face. Not many flicks have the power to make you tear up with the simplest of emotions, but The Intern certainly did so. For those who haven’t yet heard of the movie, let me give you a short premise.

The Intern is the heart-warming story of an adorable 70-year-old retired Ben Whittaker (Robert De Niro) who tries a second inning at work. While walking through the streets one day, he comes across a pamphlet stating the need for “senior interns” at the newly successful e-commerce giant, run by Jules Austen (Anne Hathaway). He applies for it and voila! Gets selected. Whittaker’s charm and experience guide Jules through her own crisis, and gradually a special bond and friendship forms between the two of them.

The way Ben befriends the young lads, offers one to move in with him, and then pulls of a “mal heist” with them, will make you miss the coolest stuff you did with your friends. And yes, it will make you forget that one of them is a 70-year-old senior citizen.
