The Grand Budapest Hotel
Monsieur Gustave H. is eccentric and sometimes ostentatious, but he has a true appreciation for what makes life interesting.
The Grand Budapest Hotel is like a Faberge egg: so much whimsy and beauty and point-of-view wrapped up in a comparatively tiny 100 minutes. It's a witty, irreverent film, and just when you think you've regained your footing after yet another bizarre, hilarious and ultimately charming plot twist, it trips you up again.
While the film makes you laugh, it's also destabilizing you with resolutions that are fresh and complex. It'll make you think about friendship and loyalty, and transport you to a world that seems both strange and familiar. That's a feat.
Teens and their parents will find a good balance between the bizarre and the true, and may even recognize themselves in the hopeful, aspiring yet devoted Monsieur Gustave or his longtime friend, Zero.
The film itself is a rollercoaster of screwball comedy, deftly puppeteered by a filmmaker in complete control of his tools. One of the little gems he delivers here is an eye-popping mountaintop snow-chase sequence that'll have you cheering from your seat. But the film is as much a celebration of a bygone era, and Anderson gives us loving nostalgia-soaked montages and impressions of 1930s Europe. The tender friendship between Gustave and Zero gives the film an emotional core that's both refreshing and surprising in Anderson's work.
We mainly get the story of Zero, a junior bellhop at the Grand Budapest Hotel, but more importantly we get the world around him, one fraught with danger and tragedy, war and love,
