Joining the firm, De Niro’s character gets assigned to Hathaway who is a very skeptical boss and ignores him at first. Wanting nothing but the best for Hathaway, De Niro goes out of his way and helps his boss. The story turns into a professional friendship rather than a simple summer fling and that’s where the quote “beauty lies in simplicity” comes in.

In an interview with The Independent, De Niro and Hathaway sat down for a chat about the 2015 film. During their conversations, the Killers of the Flower Moon star talked about how he regrets that Hollywood will probably not make movies like this.

“For me it was back to normal in some ways. his is not the type of movie you see much of these days. ”She’s [Nancy Meyers] my generation. and I’m used to doing movies the way she does them and taking a long time to shoot. Times are changing.”

And with De Niro’s statements heard, his co-star Anne Hathaway is going to do exactly the opposite. A first look at Hathaway’s new film The Idea of You was released on the internet and it is… romantic and a little bit seductive. And yes… the film is partially inspired by Harry Styles’s life.
