This postcard was sent to ancient Europe and recorded the history of the demise of traditional European civilization.
In 2014, director Wes Ender directed "The Grand Budapest Hotel" starring Ralph Fiennes and Saoirse Ronan. Wes Anderson is an unclassifiable ghostly director, most of his works are good at the box office, this one is even close to 200 million US dollars, but he never makes commercial films, always maintaining an independent spirit and distance from Hollywood. He is more like a spiritual European, with iconic compositions and color schemes, grotesque stories and characters, a blend of small freshness and bad taste, and is a unique landscape in the film industry.
The Grand Budapest Hotel was created from the beginning to create works of art. The script was co-written by Anderson and painter Hugo Guinness, and the core is full of "Zvi format" plot, but the presentation is light and fun, combining elements such as murder, prison break, romance, comedy and so on. Most of the scenes were shot in Germany, and each frame of film can be used as wallpaper, giving a strong sense of aesthetic pleasure.
This film gathers many powerful actors, including actors and queens, who willingly play soy sauce for this movie, which shows the personal brand appeal of director Wes Anderson. The whole story has nothing to do with Budapest or Hungary, and using it as a title may have been a tribute to the film's source of inspiration.
Director Wes Anderson tells a complete tragedy of the times in a comedy way, as Chaplin said: "Life is a tragedy at close range, but it is often a comedy from a distance." "Some things, while scarce, haven't completely disappeared. The ridicule and banter in the movie is a deconstruction of the times and self, Gustav knows to pay attention to tragedy, and Old Zero and Gustav also know that tragedy is destined to occur. They hope to capture some fond memories that haven't completely disappeared yet.
In other words, it is precisely because of tragedy that it has the richest aesthetic value. As Xiang Yu said: "So far, thinking about Xiang Yu, I refuse to cross Jiangdong." ”
