Several Actors Check into Wes Anderson's 'The Grand Budapest Hotel'
First time hearing anything about this. I thought Moonrise Kingdom was fantastic, and I can't wait to hear more about this film.Still, Anderson's cast is quite remarkable for a film whose plot details are quite scarce at the moment. It is known that "The Grand Budapest Hotel" centers "around the trials and tribulations of Mr. Gustave (Fiennes) who serves as the hotel's perfectly composed concierge."
Anderson has also revealed that the film will take place 85 years ago, that there's a "mind-reader character" in the script, and that it's a "Euro movie" in the vein of Billy Wilder and Ernst Lubitsch .
The title also seemingly echoes "Grand Hotel," the 1932 Oscar-winning film that hovered around the tenants in a Berlin hotel (and, coincidentally, Anderson's film will be shot in Germany). Anderson has never shied away from retro and vintage styled films, so it wouldn't be too surprising to see the director recall that film as well.
