Trailer
Why watch this film?
One of the lightest, funniest, and most enjoyable stories about intertwining destinies. Here, four lives come into focus in the narrative: Amanda (Cameron Diaz), an executive from Los Angeles; Iris (Kate Winslet), a journalist disillusioned with love life; Graham (Jude Law), a dashing rogue; and Miles (Jack Black), a laid-back and funny soundtrack composer. These four, due to a trip taken by the two women, end up meeting (and sometimes missing) each other in a way that will change their lives forever. It's hard not to travel in the world of possibilities of this simple but well-told Nancy Meyers story (‘The Holiday’).

Something's Gotta Give
Although it doesn't innovate too much in terms of the typical romantic comedy formula, 'Something's Gotta Give' had the novelty (at the time) of focusing on an older couple. However, it helps a lot that it has two true legends as protagonists: each and every scene between Diane Keaton and Jack Nicholson is glorious.
The Intern
For hardcore movie buffs and followers of Robert De Niro's career, it has likely been confusing to see the legendary star of "Taxi Driver" and "Raging Bull" act in fairly average movies like "Meet the Fockers," "Righteous Kill," or "Grumpier Old Men" in his later career. Among them, "The Intern" has been one of the more decent productions of his recent filmography, largely thanks to his charisma and on-screen chemistry with Anne Hathaway ("The Devil Wears Prada"). It's also a script that tackles contemporary themes, such as the ideological gap between generations, the precarious family and economic situation many elderly citizens find themselves in (as well as the need to appreciate their wisdom), as well as the challenges faced by working women at home and in the workplace. It's not the deepest film on any of these topics, but it's appreciated that a comedy whose purpose is pure entertainment addresses them.
