The Intern

Ben Whittaker is a 70-year-old widower bored with retirement who applies for a senior internship at an online fashion startup run by ambitious young founder Jules Ostin. At first Jules dismisses him, but Ben's old-fashioned wisdom, kindness, and patience slowly become indispensable to her stressful life. The film explores friendship across generations and the balance between work and family. It's gentle, warm, and easy to watch. For English learners: B1 level. Clear American English at a moderate pace. Vocabulary covers business, technology, and family in accessible ways. Ben speaks slowly and articulately; Jules is faster but still clear. Excellent choice for intermediate learners building business English.
