It’s amazing how Wes Anderson can create a good story out of any material! The way he films is so different from the way anyone else is making movies, it’s refreshing. I loved everything: his use of color, the offbeat humor, the acting… I was also impressed by the number of famous actor he managed to rope into the movie: Ralph Fiennes, Adrien Brody, Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum, Jude Law, Bill Murray, Ed Norton, Owen Wilson…
Go see it!
I would like to live in a Wes Anderson designed space filled with Wes Anderson like characters 🙂
Totally agree. Wes is fantastically creative, and this was one of his best. Did you ever see the Fantastic Mr. Fox?
Funnily, the grandpa of a friend of mine used to own Grand Hotel Budapest – and lost it on gambling (card games). 🙂
