- Please forgive mispronunciations. We know they’re there…they are lessons learned to do better.
We all know Wes Anderson’s films…his unique style, exquisite storytelling, dazzling use of color, use of symmetry and on and on. But what dazzles us out of all of his work is the meticulously charming world of The Grand Budapest Hotel. With a marvelous team, including production designer Adam Stockhausen, he creates a world full of mystery, hijinks, love, adventure and most of all….nostalgia.

I remember when this movie came out, but I didn’t see it until about 4 days ago, it instantly became a classic to me and one of my top 5 favorite films.
It was years after it came out before my first watch as well and I am SO bummed I didn’t see it sooner! ☺️👍🏻
I saw it last month and it was so funny. I don't know what I expected with it but I got something entirely different, that's for sure
There must've been a ton of research that went into this project, very impressive. Felt like I was watching a behind the scenes bonus feature or something. Look forward to more content! Pans Labyrinth, Minority Report, or Moulin Rouge are some films that come to mind that I'd love to see covered!
Thank you so much! We did do quite a lot of digging...Wes Anderson's movies always have so much going on that we didn't want to do it an injustice...and we still didn't cover everything! Those are all great suggestions and really appreciated! Minority Report is one of our favorite action films and a great one to cover! Thank you again!
This video is a Anderson fanboy goldmine, well done👏👏
So glad you enjoyed it! We'll definitely be covering more of his films in the future.
1 of 3 films I've recommended to my mom, and she's actually enjoyed. One of my favorite of all time movies, I'm getting it on DVD so that if society ever collapses I can still watch it.
It's crazy that this channel never took off.
I couldn’t agree with you more…it’s a perfect film! We appreciate that! We haven’t gone away…just took an extended (and necessary) break. We’ll be back in the new year with new content! 👍🏻
@@CineStructure Oh, wow, that's great to hear. You guys do some great examinations of some truly fantastic films, keep up the good work!
That really means so much! Thank you!
Wes Anderson’s movies are always fascinating... looking forward to seeing more 👍🏻💗
They are so unique! It’s hard to not fall in love with them. Thank you so much!
This is my favorite movie of all time, and it's amazing to see the places and inspirations for the locations of the movie.
It's such an incredible film! It would be an amazing journey to go and visit these places one day...definitely on the wish list! :)
I love this movie. All the information about the set and locations is very much appreciated. Thankfully I had the chance to go to Europe in August of 1990. This is one of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen. I learned a lot from this. Thank you.
It’s absolutely a STUNNING movie! He manages to capture the aesthetic of a place (and to create them) in such magical ways. I’ve seen very little of Europe so far and am dying to do more exploring! I’ll bet your trip there in ‘90 was amazing!! Thank you so much for watching and we are so so glad you liked it! ☺️👍🏻
This was great. I love the parts on use of color.
Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it!!!
A video on : The Right Stuff"...the most perfect movie ever made
Hey!!! Great idea! It’s an AMAZING movie! Adding it to our list! 🙌🏻
I think it will be regarded as a masterpeice in the decades to come. I love it
Absolutely agreed! 🙌🏻☺️
These videos are so great! Amazing analysis and so well done! Keep it up!
Thank you so much! We really appreciate that! :)
Waiting for the next video! Great job :)
We are so glad that you enjoyed it! We are hoping to have a new video (new format too) up this weekend!
In the meantime, we’ve got others available that you might enjoy. Thank you so much for the support! ☺️🙌🏻
Very well done!
And yes, that film it's a big and wonderful universe!
Thank you so much!!! Every Wes Anderson film is just so rich and overflowing with detail. He does stunning work. 🤗
Thank you. Very much appreciated.
Thank you so much for watching! So glad you enjoyed it! ✨
The algorithm just splashed your video over my FYP and I just wanted to thank you for all the hard work and care you took for this essay. This was really fun to watch! You did amazing! Thank you! ❤
We can’t tell you how much that’s appreciated and are so glad that you enjoyed the video! We’ve got plenty others if you’re interested and (when we have downtime from work) are working on some new content! Thank you so much for your support and such a positive comment! ✨
Thank you. That is truly helpful and made me see details that I had missed.. Excellent!
I always say it’s a sign of a good movie when things blend and work so well that they’re missed! So glad that you enjoyed it! 🙌🏻☺️
This video is epic! Thank you
Thank you so much! That means the world! So glad that you enjoyed it!!
Great video and fantastic channel. Keep this content coming please👍
Thank you so much! Your compliment means a lot to us! We have lots of films lined up and release every two weeks...many years of videos to come! 🙂👍
Wonderful video, I can't imagine how this channel only has so few views and subs. Thank you for the amazing guide!
Thank you! It’s mostly our fault…we’ve taken a long break this last year, as some life/work shifts have occurred. We will be back in the new year with new content! ☺️👍🏻
Just jumping back on this one and it's so great. You notice so much in terms of details for each film you cover and the videos are so informative and fun regarding all that stuff. Great choices with music for this one too!
Thank you so much! We still don’t feel like we covered everything...Wes Anderson’s movies are just sooo rich with detail. Truly so glad you liked it! 😊🙌🏻
@@CineStructure well either way you've covered more than if you had never made a video. You talked about more details than anyone who didn't make a video you know? So think about it that way, it's cool. Creating content is so damn good and everyone has a unique point of view, it's a shame most people go by without even trying stuff like this
@@LetsCrashThisParade Thank you for that! You're absolutely right. We're probably going to do a part 2 down the road, but we have so many other things we want to cover first. We totally agree....we hear so many people talk about making great CZcams content and they don't go for it. It's all about getting your love/passions out there! :)
you have such a soothing voice! I love it !!!
Thank you so much! That's such a lovely compliment!
A wonderful love letter to the film and some really insightful behind the scenes ideas. Great video!
This is such a lovely comment! Thank you so much! We are so glad you enjoyed! Can’t wait to do a video on “Asteroid City…” different animal but absolutely stunning film ✨
Excellent analysis. You broke down lots of details I noticed, but didn't have time to process while watching the film. You also connected details in and between scenes that I completely overlooked. Loved your review. Thank you.
Thank you so much! We are truly so glad that you enjoyed it! Your support means the world ☺️
This channel is gonna blow up. Great video
Thank you so so much! We are truly flattered and so glad that you enjoyed it! 👍🏻☺️
It is an absolute crime that this account only has 775 subscribers. You deserve millions more!
Thank you so much! We would LOVE millions more! ☺️🙌🏻
Came from Reddit, loved the video and your in-depth analysis! Keep up the solid work 💯
Thank you so so much! It means a lot that you checked out our video and we are so glad that you like it! 🤗👍🏻
Who knew? I really enjoyed your work. Thank you 😊
Thank you! So glad you liked it!!! 😁🙌🏻
The attention to detail is amazing,you guys really are naturals for this, and I must add ,,very professional!!🧐
Thank you so much!!! We are having such a blast with it! :)
Great review. Thank you for all these interesting insights. Now I want to watch the movie again 🙏🏾
Thanks! We're always happy to encourage repeat viewings of Grand Budapest!
Great video! I had no idea Wes Anderson went to such lengths to recreate this world but that’s incredible. My personal favorite Wes Anderson movie’s Rushmore mainly because of just how funny it is, but this is a close second. I used this movie to introduce multiple friends to Wes Anderson and now they’re big fans of him. Looking forward to more videos!
It’s so incredible! And, from what we’ve read, he works personally on every little detail...even down to writing and laying out the newspaper articles in the film! His approach is so admirable! Thank you so much for watching!
wow, what a great video and channel. great content. keep it up!
Thank you so much! We really appreciate it! Plenty of new content heading your way! 👍🏻☺️
I love this movie. They did an excellent job ❤
It’s such a phenomenal film! Are you a big Wes Anderson fan? Any others you’d like to see us discuss for the set/locations?
great video
well done
Thank you so much! So glad that you enjoyed it! 🤗
Speaking about Soviet Era elements and you don't want to remain there for very long it is really the matter of taste to be honest. I really like Soviet Era style both exteriors and interiors. And some things I like even more than from 17-20th centuries Imperial styles
Being in the architecture field, I 1000% know what you mean! Personally, I adore Soviet-era design and architecture, brutalism…all of those styles that have almost a bleakness or coldness to them. The comment was definitely in the more general sense…I hear constantly from people that those styles make them uncomfortable. But definitely agree…it’s all personal opinion. ☺️👍🏻
Bravo
Thank you so much! So glad that you enjoyed it! ☺️👍🏻
66 year old here. "former prison which is now a nursing home.' Laughing my head off. 🙂
Ha! I know…the very sad irony there…😂
A beautiful video analyzing a masterful artwork. I noticed you said “we” when referring to the people making this video. Am i to understand that this channel is the effort of more than one person?
Additionally, found yall from the reddit post on r/wesanderson
Hi Paul! Thank you so much and we're truly so grateful for your support on the channel! That's correct...we are a husband and wife team. My husband has a background in editing/post and mine is in architecture. We both adore film and production design and wanted to share our combined passions. So glad you found us!
Holy shit! The sources i just realized. Just you two, that’s incredible. This channel could easily become successful with consistent uploads and promotion. I’m more than happy to sub and stick with your channel.
Seriously thank you so much! We both really appreciate it! It's a passion project, but of course success is always a goal and we truly appreciate your support! We're keeping at it...we decided to take a little more time on the next video because it's a really complex film to tackle and we want to do it right, but we're hoping to have a new video up next week. We have such a long list of movies to discuss, but if you have any you'd love to hear about, let us know and we'll add them to the list! Thanks again! :)
da lobby boy was so good that da jon got trapped in the hotel, and to escape he had to find another jon to fall in love with himself as da boy so he could be himself again. you may find it hard to believe da lobby boy from chaco canyon is forever yum, but hes that good.
He’s a great actor! I’ve been seeing him cast more and more lately and it’s so wonderful!
The guy who owns the company Simon Weisse that made the budapest film miniature of the building did an lecture in my uni! absolutley facinating but sadly he gets rarely mentioned?? Not even in the artbook. What a shame.
Argh did we not mention his name? I’m glad you brought our attention to this…something to bear in mind for future videos! He works with Wes Anderson a lot. What a cool career! I’m in the architecture field and I miss building scale models!
I love Ralph Finneas in this film but Robin Williams would have been absolutely perfect in that role.
Ralph Fiennes is perfection in this film! BUT that’s a really interesting casting notion! I think Robin Williams would have been incredible in any Wes Anderson film! 👍🏻
I once talked to a congierge and the society of golden keys actually exists in a way
It’s true! The Society of Golden Keys. LOVE that it has a basis in reality. It’s such a cool notion! 👍🏻
When I watched this movie I wished I was wealthy and could have lived at that hotel.
Us too! We can only dream right?
Is this narrated by a real person or AI? The name Goerlitz doesn’t sound like “gohr-lits” (rhyming with “poor-lits) but more like “girl-lits. The museum, pronounced here like “cunts museum” is really like the double “o” in English as in “books.” It’s like starting to say “could.” Just take off the “d” of “could” and add the last part of “angst”. “Kunst” in German means art. It hurts to hear it pronounced like the British slang, “cunt.”
It’s narrated by me, an actual human. We’ve learned a lot of lessons since this video about better researching pronunciations of places (we did research a lot of these but clearly found some bad info). I appreciate the corrections on pronunciation 👍🏻
Unfortunately, once a video is up, there is little that can be done in the way of edits. So we’ll just have to live with the imperfection (which I’m good with, as an imperfect human) and do better in the future. 👍🏻
" A former prison, which is now a nursing home"
..... I mean, I know elderly care systems can be bad, but this is ridiculous.
😂🤣 Right? As a designer I’m all about the adaptive re-use…let’s hope it doesn’t still FEEL like a prison!
Ban CGI. xoxo
We love both practical effects and cgi. They both have their place in artistic mediums, but The Grand Budapest Hotel just wouldn’t have been the same without the incredible practical effects! They’re just so gorgeous!!! 🖤✨
@@CineStructure I'm a 1:12 dollhouse collector. Many important pieces. But it's what is conveyed that's important to me
I've done a gorgeous modern kitchen but with a doll with her head in the oven
Have plans to do The Man Who fell to Earth (collected miniature TVs for 30 years) and mapping out The Evil Dead shack (original of course,) recreation of The Colby Room at the Museum of Science Boston I've had to make my own fimo elephant foot umbrella stands, masaii shields, colobus monkey pelts.
This is my passion. With Entomology, 1870s Victorian literature and criminal justice reform. But my heart lies thinking of the realistic recreation of reality. Scuffed and dirty floors..do pee on a carpet
I embrace drones. I think they've added So much. But an Epic film... star wars used models filmed backyards.
I can see the break where the set and cgi is. It jars me.
I think my heart broke from my chest.. thumping ...with Hereditary. It defined my adoration.
That’s amazing! I’m an architectural designer and scale model building has always been a passion of mine just as a result of building them in school…and I adore dollhouses!
I totally get where you’re coming from. Some films do cgi well and some just don’t at all. It’s amazing how far it’s come in such short time.
We did a video on “Hereditary” and discuss the use of the miniatures in that film as well. It’s such a cool parallel within the story.
We’d love to see some of your work! Do you post anything online? Instagram or anything?
real CINEMA..not the marvel crap we have now..
We love the Marvel stuff too. We’re of the school that everything has a place and an audience and is its own work of art created by talented, hard working teams of people. To each their own. I love that we live in a time where everyone can find something they love and that speaks to them on a personal level. ☺️
If you could narrate a second slower, that would be nice.
Thank you for the feedback! We really appreciate it! This one was so tricky…if I’d talked any slower it would’ve been a 30 minute video 😂 Hoping my narration is better paced in the others we’ve done. Thank you so much for watching! ☺️
OVERRATED movie!
Life Aquatic, Royal Tennenbaum and Rushmore always be best Wes Anderson film ever!
My heart! 💔
No I kid…we are all entitled to our opinion. I am a lover of all things Wes Anderson. I even loved “The French Dispatch,” which seemed like an unpopular opinion, sadly. Royal Tenenbaums was my OG intro to WA. I used to live near the house in Harlem…absolutely ADORE that film!
just had to throw in some anticommie propaganda lol
Our video or the film? I feel like I’m missing something…
