The Grand Budapest Hotel | 2014 | UK Germany | Wes Anderson
8.5 / 10
"M. Gustave: I'll never part with it. It reminded her of me; it will remind me of her, always. I'll die with this picture above my bed. See the resemblance?
Zero: Oh... oh, yes.
M. Gustave: Actually, we should sell it."
From all Wes Anderson's films I found The Grand Budapest Hotel the most heartfelt. You can tell the direction and narration are more mature. The film is solid and almost flawless, still following Anderson's quirky signature.
The story is about a wonderful friendship between a legendary mannered sophisticated concierge and a lobby boy and it takes place at The Grand Budapest Hotel in the fictional country of Zubrowka. The characters are wonderfully built and like in all his films they are eccentric.
Once again Anderson creates his own universe like an artwork with perfect lines, careful compositions and an obsession for detail. This film made me feel like I was reading a book and what I saw was a product of my imagination. I believe that this is the most crowd pleaser film of his career.
