Our DVD this month is Her, an intriguing movie that was first released in 2013. Directed by Spike Jonze, it stars Joaquin Phoenix (pictured below) as Theodore, a lonely man in Los Angeles (at some stage in the future) who decides to invest in an OS (Operating System) in order to organize his life. The OS (whose voice is provided by Scarlett Johansson) isn’t actually a person, but Theodore falls in love with her. Amy Adams co-stars as Theodore’s sympathetic neighbour.
