I haven’t been that interested in seeing THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL. Until now that is! These latest pictures and pieces of concept art detail the wonderful process of creating a physical model of the eponymous hotel. It’s certainly been a crowd pleaser over in America, raking in a massive $800,000. That figure may not sound like much, but keep in mind that it was only shown on 4 screens, for an average of $200,000 per screen. That’s a phenomenal amount, and will easily be added to as the film expands its release over the coming weeks.
The film has also received very positive reviews, and was decorated with 4 stars from our very own Kat Smith. Wes Anderson films have a very loyal following and unique charm which is fully represented in the following photos. Other directors would have slapped somebody behind a computer, or just found a real location. This model seems to have an artistic life all of its own.
THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL is in theatres now! It stars Ralph Fiennes, F. Murray Abraham, Mathieu Amalric, Adrien Brody, Willem DaFoe, Jeff Goldblum, Harvey Keitel, Jude Law, Bill Murray, Edward Norton, Saoirse Ronan, Jason Schwartzman, and Owen Wilson.
