Bill Nighy and Judi Dench were distribution colleagues with Dev Patel, Maggie Smith and Tom Wilkinson in drama “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel” directed by John Madden, who is inspired by the novel “These Foolish Things” of the author Deborah Moggach which tells how they are spiritually transformed by some old persons from the UK when they contact the Indian civilization and culture, being drawn in Bangalore by tourist brochures and advertising on the Internet showing the country in a favorable light, but finding at the place crowded streets, children begging in the slums, poverty stricken and wild hotel, that can not provide them the accommodation dream.
Fascinated by the beauty of landscapes, vibrant colors and sounds, the friendliness of the locals and Indian traditions, the likable visitors forget that they have not the luxury and opulence that the trip promised in this exotic country and learn that can deepen and may reconvene love at any age.
Dialogue with editors of The Independent, Bill Nighy confessed that he was paralyzed with fear that it could unintentionally injured on Dame Judi Dench as the script while filming a scene where there was supposed to drive the Academy Award winner with motorcycle, and he is a pathetic driver, always falling into trouble on the road.
Stressed that because he was asked to lead for the first time in life a motorcycle, Bill Nighy became even more frightened when he find that Judi Dench will be on the bench behind him, especially since his driver’s skills is poor.
