AARP's 10 Best Movies for Grownups in 2012

The American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) has released their 12th annual list of 10 Best Movies for Grownups.

As one might expect, some of the choices featured older characters and actors with stories that reflected the realities of the older generation, such as Amour, Quartet and The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. However, some of the choices were simply good movies that featured few if any older characters – Argo, The Sessions, Silver Linings Playbook, and Zero Dark Thirty.

Last year's 10 Best list included eventual Best Picture Oscar-winner The Artist.

AARP is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization, with a membership of more than 37 million, that helps people 50+ have independence, choice and control in ways that are beneficial to them and society as a whole.
