What does the movie "The Grand Budapest Hotel" want to convey?

The entire movie conveys a tribute to the master. It would be too superficial to simply classify it as comedy, suspense, adventure, and drama. In fact, this is more like a documentary, historical film, and literary film.

Documentaries record the classic film techniques left by Lubitsch, Hitchcock (controversial), Rossellini, Zhuo Bolin and others. Historical films record the spiritual connotation of the decline of European civilization. Literary films are about tone and style.

The film tells the story of a janitor at a famous European hotel during the war, and the story of his friendship with a young employee who later became his most trusted protégé.

The legend of this janitor connects a thief with a Renaissance painting, a big family's battle for wealth, and a sudden war that changed the entire Europe. The film won the 87th Academy Awards for Best Costume Design and Best Art Direction.

Behind-the-scenes footage:

1. When asked at the film press conference about the secret to landing big names, Wes Anderson was overtaken by Bill Murray. Bill Murray said he relied on long hours, a meager salary and a little bread, and complained that many times he stayed on set for a week or a month just to work for 90 minutes.

2. Tilta Swinton also complained that she had few roles because the director didn’t want them. Then he comforted himself by saying, of course, as we all know, "it's not just long". Such "complaints" by actors further illustrate their recognition and trust in the director.
