Her
The antidote to all the computer-centered dystopia films, Her imagines a future in which technology has made everybody's lives better. Recently divorced Theodore (Joaquin Phoenix) is gun-shy about relationship. He purchases OS1, a new operating system who calls herself Samantha (Scarlett Johannsen). She's essentially Siri version 99999. They fall in love, a socially acceptable relationship in their era, even though Samantha is just a disembodied voice. Complications ensue when, contrary to the film trope of computers developing human characteristics, it turns out that OS1s define love and happiness differently from people.
