This week's Movies for Readers is The 100-Foot Journey, starring Helen Mirren, Om Puri, Charlotte Le Bon, and Manish Dayal. It is a movie about real people living real lives - no super heroes, no explosions, no car crashes (well, there is one near miss), and no vulgarity. In other words, this is a movie for mature audiences who know how to read. The 2014 movie is based on a novel by the same name that Richard C. Morais published in 2010. I have been recommending it to friends for the last couple of weeks, and I've yet to find anyone who has a bad thing to say about it.
This trailer gives a good feel for the movie's tone and quality:
