    Сast and Crew

    Production

    Drafting of The Grand Budapest Hotel story began in 2006, when Wes Anderson produced an 18-page script with longtime collaborator Hugo Guinness. They imagined a fragmented tale of a character inspired by a mutual friend, based in modern France and the United Kingdom. Though their prototype led to a roughly 12-minute-long cut, the Anderson–Guinness collaboration stalled when the two men were unable to coalesce a uniform sequence of events to advance their story. By this time, Anderson had begun researching the work of Austrian novelist Stefan Zweig, with which he was vaguely familiar. He became fascinated with Zweig, gravitating to Beware of Pity (1939), The World of Yesterday (1942), and The Post Office Girl (1982) for their fatalist mythos and Zweig's portrait of early twentieth-century Vienna. Anderson also used period images and urbane Europe-set mid-century Hollywood comedies as references. He ultimately pursued a historical pastiche with an alternate timeline, disillusioned with popular media's romanticism of pre-World War II European history. Once The Grand Budapest Hotel took definite form, Anderson resumed the scriptwriting, finishing the screenplay in six weeks. The producers tapped Jay Clarke to supervise production of the film's animatics, with voiceovers by Anderson.

    The film was shot, of course, great, but the plot here is so-so. Personally, I wasn’t interested in the story. Now it’s clear why it completely disappeared from my mind after the first viewing. I give the film a 7 for atmosphere. For complete immersion, it is best to watch it in winter. Translated to English

    Watched

    Atmospheric movie with an impressive list of actors. Humorous, with excellent visual solutions and running around (remember the films of Buster Keaton). Spoiler: there are downsides – the beginning is a little languid and the ridiculous death of Gustav: his hero was much more enterprising than to be simply shot Translated to English

    Watched

    A funny, light and dynamic film with a simple tragic plot. Just right for evening viewing. Translated to English

    Watched

    I’ve already rewatched it several times. A great film full of talented actors, atmospheric locations, funny jokes and colorful characters. It is special, unlike any other films. Translated to English

    Separately, it is worth noting the sense of cinematic convention, which does not for a moment allow you to believe in the reality of what is happening. Translated to English

    Watched

    The film turned out to be bright, elegant, memorable and interesting. It is full of action and therefore does not let you get bored. If you just get distracted for a split second, you will definitely miss something important. If you find a movie boring or overrated, then you are not ready to watch it yet. Translated to English

    Watched

    I’m rewatching it after ten years! In large part to remind myself what a wonderful film it is. Translated to English

    Watched

    That rare film when the director is more talented than the screenwriter. Vivid, memorable images, picturesqueness and absurdity of events only emphasize the ambiance of the fantasy of the writer who listened to the memories of the hotel owner. All this charm is emphasized by an excellent cast and good dialogues. Translated to English

    Watched

    I rewatched it a year later and corrected the rating from 7 to 10. This is an amazing movie – it was like being in an immersive theater. There is such precision in the composition of all shots, details, mise-en-scène, selection of music – that one can forgive a not very exciting story. Remains in "Favorites". Translated to English

    Watched

    Probably the most recognizable Wes Anderson film. If you want to see a film with a harmonious plot, diluted with subtle humor, wonderful actors, an unforgettable atmosphere in addition to a pleasant video sequence. Welcome to the club of independent film lovers! Translated to English

    Watched

    Beautiful. But that’s not to say that it makes a lot of sense. I don’t think you’ll remember this movie after a while. Translated to English

    Watched

    Very subtle. Amazing picture. Atmosphere thought out to the smallest detail. Excellent musical accompaniment. The acting is beyond praise. But I didn’t like it – forgive me my dullness, dear critics… Translated to English

    Watched

    interesting visual component and amazing cast, but the film is absolutely not my thing Translated to English

    Watched

    This is really a fantasy film, not a boring one for sure, the epic just doesn’t stand still, I liked the design of the hotel and the acting is great, I recommend watching it. Translated to English
