The Grand Budapest Hotel

Part of THIS IS SEARCHLIGHT, our season celebrating 30 years of Searchlight Pictures. 

At the opulent Grand Budapest Hotel in the early 20th century, peerless concierge M. Gustave (Ralph Fiennes) finds himself swept up in the battle for an enormous family fortune – and subsequently framed for murder – when one of his frequent guests dies. 

Assisted by his young, inexperienced protege Zero (Tony Revolori), who becomes a trusted friend, Gustave attempts to prove his innocence while political tumult transforms the old-world splendour of the Europe he calls home. 

Meticulously designed and performed with panache by an all-star ensemble, the inimitable Wes Anderson brings all his wit and visual inventiveness to this exquisite caper, anchored by a magnificent Fiennes. You’ll never want to check out.
