[ABSTRAK Makalah ini meneliti representasi poskolonial India dalam film the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel. Representasi orientalis India dalam makalah ini dilihat melalui latar tempat, kekacauan (situasi) dan iklim India, transportasi umum, dan kemiskinan dari negara tersebut. Perspektif bias dari 7 karakter turis asal Inggris terhadap India dan proses adaptasi antar kebudayaan juga dibahas dalam makalah ini. Teori Orientalisme Edward Said dan teori Ambivalensi Homi K. Bhabha digunakan untuk menganalisis hubungan poskolonial Inggris-India dalam film, sedangkan konsep dinamis dari teori culture confusion digunakan untuk menjelaskan bagaimana masing-masing karakter menghadapi perbedaan kebudayaan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa film the Best Exotic Marigold Hotel mengingatkan kembali masa kolonial Inggris di India dan memperlihatkan sebuah representasi orientalis.
