    Good group drama: 7, 5/10, the hotel is always the same, people come and go, everything is business as usual. Joan Crawford is an unbeautiful vase, the baron is the cannon fodder, and the terminally ill old man wins: gambling table + beauty, the lady played by Greta Garbo looks like an old pearl and yellow actress from Sunset Boulevard, with exaggerated body...

    Recent favorites. The fates of five different characters in a luxury hotel are intertwined, but they are nothing but an insignificant scene in the bustling repertoire. There are industrial giants in financial trouble, bookkeepers who are dying of love and pleasure, stenographers who are young and beautiful for money, ballet actresses who want to die in decline, and barons who have to steal to survive. The profiles of the above characters are all told through the alternate horizontal...

    After reading it, I don't know how to express my inner sadness. How luxurious this hotel is, and how sad the people who are in it are. Every weak and beautiful soul will always be trampled on, but fortunately, some souls are always comforted. Every actor is so charming, and the female stars of that era are really unparalleled...

    The earlier multi-clue group portraits actually weave other secondary characters around one main thread (the Baron and the Ballet Queen's love at first sight triggers a follow-up event). The character design is full of intentional conflict, which is three-dimensional and interesting, and the simplicity of the story itself is hidden in the various character maps. The doctor with the mutilated face as a cold-eyed bystander seems to be a literary metaphor for the sound soul, while everyone else is...

    This film is adapted from the novel of the same name by the Austrian writer Wijbaum. It depicts the different experiences of five different guests of the Grand Hotel in one day in an objective, realistic and humorous way. Although the theme is to reflect the depression, confusion and decadence of the German society after World War I, it unexpectedly became the beginning of MGM's domination of Hollywood, winning with a strong lineup of stars, twists and turns and bizarre plots and intricate...

    Grand Hotel (1932)—The 5th Oscar for Best Picture
                                    
           Grand Hotel is like a microcosm of a society. Different characters and different destinies are cleverly intertwined, but separated quietly. I have watched a few TV series on the theme of hotel, but most of the...

Grand Hotel quotes

  • Preysing: I don't know much about women. I've been married for 28 years, you know.

  • [to Preysing, after he tries to get 'familiar' with her by asking her to call him by his first name]

    Flaemmchen: You know I always say that nothing should be left hanging over. And names are like that. Suppose I met you next year and said, 'How do you do Mr. Preysing?' And you said, 'That's the young lady who was my secretary in Manchester.' That's all quite propper. But supposing I saw you and yelled 'Hi baby. Remember Manchester.'

    [he laughs]

    Flaemmchen: Yeah, and you were with your wife. How would you like that?
