The Grand Budapest Hotel tells of a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars and his friendship with a young employee who becomes his trusted protégé. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting, the battle for an enormous family fortune and the slow and then sudden upheavals that transformed Europe during the first half of the 20th century. Wes Anderson’s immaculate design and compositions are on top form here, as well as his troupe of incredible actors including Edward Norton and Adrien Brody, plus an unforgettable comic performance from Ralph Fiennes.

“My advice is, don’t let academic analysis bury the pleasures of beholding Anderson in a wonderland of his own making. His abiding love for a vanished past, real and imagined, is at the core of ‘The Grand Budapest Hotel’. The thrill comes in watching as this rare talent gives his movie wings.” ~ Peter Travers, Rolling Stone
