I love Wes Anderson’s style and I loved his film too, although it’s pretty different from his previous films. It looks like a fairy tale, in any case, the folklore presentation, in my opinion, is obvious, therefore, the genre of oral story is chosen. It is very stylishly shot, in a deliberately elegant form presented to us and the main characters, and everything else that we see, although somewhere pretty soon we begin to understand that it is happening at a very difficult time. These are film illustrations to the story of one of the main characters to the author about an absolutely amazing story that happened in his life, and about an absolutely amazing person who met in the life of a simple immigrant boy. Despite the convention of what is happening, the straightforwardness of the situations that once again reminded us of the style of oral storytelling (because if we were shown just the story “as it was”, everything would be different, and in the retelling we always straighten and simplify everything), looked with interest and pleasure, appreciating the humor of the director, who invited almost all the roles of very famous actors, although some of them, we do not even have time to consider properly, for which he was also reprocated by professional film critics. The real protagonist is Gustav M. performed by Rafe Fiennes. This professionally trained concierge, pleasing his rich clients and clients especially in all possible ways, might have earned our disapproval if, along with such generally not very pleasant qualities, he had not, as a result, turned out to be a noble man capable of defending himself and admitting his wrongness. I would love to draw the political relevance of this film, as some have rushed to do, but I don’t want to do that. In the end, this is a film about a man to whom the hero of the story retained deep gratitude and affection for life, and how many do we meet in the life of such people?
