For a moment, Akaashi stared at him with a dazed expression. He hadn’t expected such a good response. Part of him wondered if Konoha would push him away, and the other part was cheering with glee at being accepted. Dark eyes glittered a bit as he came to his senses. The setter leaned in again, barely a breath between them.

“ May I kiss you again ? “

The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014)

Director: Wes Anderson

Starring: Tilda Swinton, Jude Law, Owen Wilson, Ralph Fiennes, Harvey Keitel, Willen Defoe, Bill Murray, F. Murray Abraham, Adrien Brody, Jeff Goldblum and many more

Premièred at the Berlin Film Festival on February 5th. Released in the UK on March 7th 2014.

At seventeen I found the films of Wes Anderson and after many failed attempts to make him the subject matter of my French classes and to find his entire back catalogue at my local HMV, I prepared myself for a life where I would never see any more than those I already had. When I found out about this film, the excitement I felt for its arrival was incredible. The chance to see a film made by Wes Anderson at the cinema made me so excited I could barely stop talking about it (something I wish to apologise to my co-workers for).

The Grand Budapest Hotel tells about how the current owner came to own the large brightly coloured hotel that resides in a fictional foreign land. It follows Monsieur Gustav, the concierge and Zero the lobby boy as they race across the country after a deceased guest leaves an incredibly valuable painting to Gustav in thanks for the service he has provided her over the years.

Besides featuring a star-studded cast, the direction is typical of Wes Anderson's movies, framed in a way that makes things look more realistic than other Hollywood films but with a prominent surreal texture to it; as though things are usual but they don't seem quite right. Combine this with the mostly pastel palette used through the film and it's almost like you're watching a dream.

As is to be expected, the characters are varied and quirky with my personal favourite being Monsieur Gustav. To begin with I thought he was a manipulative schmoozing lothario whose sole aim was to be self-serving but in actuality he was a genuinely heartfelt, kind, gentle men who has a preference that things be in place and displays a genuine affection for all the ladies he entertains. He is friendly and very much a gentleman to the point where I regretted thinking so ill of him.

All of this comes together and combines with an unpredictable storyline and a vast array of clearly passionate actors to create a world that is diverse and beautiful, but also dangerous and exciting. On the whole it was an absolute delight to see.

Rating - 4/5

Though you might want to keep in mind, I'm likely to be biased.
