"Handkerchief created for the woman, it is true that children's action man today as you forget," said Ben Whittaker.

Greeting Robert De Niro when playing a retired man who worked as an intern back indicate how far its time difference with the present. All recorded in the latest Warner Bros. comedy, The Intern.

Robert De Niro at first enjoy life male 70-year-old pensioner named Ben Whittaker.

Since he retired from the work already acted for 40 years, coupled with the death of his wife, Ben enjoyed the old days to travel around the world, took tai chi classes, reading the newspaper, and also attended the funeral ceremony.

Then he realized that he was tired of life in old age. One day, he was interested to follow an apprenticeship program for seniors in a fashion company.

Buying and selling clothing company is led by a young woman, Jules Ostin played by Anne Hathaway.

Jules-owned business development make him more soluble in the bustle up together with the children and her husband to be reduced. However, he was still trying to balance it all even though he became a figure regulator, covered, and super busy.

Ben with exceptional work experience and a highly professional attitude was accepted into the company of Jules. He was placed as a personal astisten the lady boss, a position which is shunned by all people in the office.

Decades of experience make Ben become a professional figure even though the style of the old office he could not remove it. Had trouble with the sophistication of the technology that is foreign to him, he slowly began to get used to and be a friend of a fellow colleague.

Portion Fitting Role

Robert De Niro and Anna Hathaway portray each character very well. See figure De Niro becomes a pensioner who still carries a handkerchief, briefcase output box 1973, to calculators, as reminiscent of a father who was so attentive and responsible for his family.

Hathaway also plays its portion very well. There is no longer the look-expression inherent with Princess Diaries. She grew into a successful career woman figure, although store various problems in her.

Hathaway experience acting in a fashion company in the Devil Wears Prada (2006) became a journalist at the same time personal assistant mode cruel Meryl Streep seems a bit much to bring influence in her acting now.

De Niro and Hathaway are two figures acting star who grew up in a much different era. De Niro is so well known for for his acting as Vito Corleone in The Godfather 2 in 1974 ago, 27 years earlier with the Hathaway into an impromptu princess in the Princess Diaries (2001).

It took more effort in bringing together the chemistry between the two in the movie storyline. It seems business is still less visible in the Intern. De Niro and Hathaway does have excellent quality of acting individually, but they are not 'united' as a solid in the story narrated.

When looking at the movie scene by scene, the audience will be difficult to define the relationship between Ben and Jules. One side they looked like the boss and the employee, the other as a friend, but in another scene that looks like a father-son, with the romance of the absurd for the position.

However, the interesting part of this movie is Nancy Mayers ingenuity in developing a work culture era merger story of parents with young people today. It was strange at first after seeing De Niro wearing a suit and tie neatly plus norm in relationships are formal, in the midst of today's work culture is more relaxed and versatile use of technology.

However, the culture of 'old-fashioned' brought by De Niro turned out to be the solution to the problems faced by today's technological society, particularly in matters of socializing and building relationships. Who would have thought, handkerchiefs were taken to the office can be a weapon 'mode' to win a woman's heart?

Generally The Intern provide interesting illustration of how far the world has changed between the time of our parents. Children ought to take a lesson from the experiences of their parents, and parents must also be heartened accept the changing times be a child grow.
