(Previously On Bogger Box Office!....
We open 2018 not with a Trudge but a Stride, as last week we started on the Glorious Grand Budapest. Ralph Fiennes is Monsieur Gustafe, the Peerless Perfumed Poetry-spouting Concierge of the Grand Budapest, Held in deep regard in the Memories of Zero Mustafa, (F Murray Abraham) the Supposed Owner of the Grand Budapest, recanting his story to an Author with no Name Given, on how he, a simple lobby-boy rose to wealth during the War.
Where we left off, Gustafe has being arrested and sent to an internment Camp, charged with with killing his lover, Madame D (Tilda Swinton) and stealing a painting that was in fact bequeathed to him. The only man who could have witness anything has gone missing.
The D family have sent The Merciless Captain Jopling (Willem Dafoe) to Zero's Shanty to threaten his sister. The Hotel is told to work as if Gustafe is "watching them like a hawk, with a horsewhip in his talons!"
At the Same time, Since the hotel life is the only life he knows, Gustafe turns his incarceration into Busy Work ("Would I interest you felons in a bowl of gruel?" ) His Kindness eventually convinces a gang, led by Ludvig (Harvey Keitel ) to be part of the escape...Suddenly Mustafa Stops his story as the Industrial Strengh Spotlights regulate back to the lights in the Dining room, and back to Mustafa and the Author. Mustafa is about to speak of Agatha, his lover, but it be too emotional a tale! He Wipes a tear and recants how a simple Confectioner's daughter saved him and the hotel.
1 month and several purchases of Mendl's Confections later. And Zero and Agatha (Saoirse Ronan) were now Finances. Despite having a giant birthmark on her face that looks like Mexico, Zero has fallen for her. The Pastry Chef is instrumental in smuggling tools in her deserts as one look from the beleagured guards passes the things through! Without the location of Serge, the Butler, and a testimonial from him, Lt. Kovacks (Jeff Goldblum) cannot pass inheritance to Dmitri, (Adrian Boring-I MEAN BRODY!) In his rage Dmitri kills Kovacks' Cat!
Despite helping Gustafe Escape, Agatha draws the line in finding and fencing the picture. Jopling is sent by the D Family to "convince" Kovacks to do a better job...by breaking off his fingers!
Gustafe and Ludwig gang escapes solely hinging on the prisoners, treated like human beings by Gustafe, again fending off the guards. When Zero couldn't get a safehouse, disguises or even his "precious" Cologne, Gustafe insults his lobby boy, calling him an unrefined Foreigner...Until Zero reveals he left his country due to War and family slaughtered. Naturally Gustafe feels terrible about what he said is sorry as the alarms ring out. As Jopling appears in the cell as Captain Henckles (Ed Norton) conducts an investigation. Throwing the thug out, the Nazi captain exposistes that Kovacks was murdered, his body shoved in a sarcophagus at a museum. At a phonebox, Gustafe has no choice but to call on an outside favour-On the help of the Society of Crossed Keys, a secret society of Concierges, Headed by Monsieur Ivan (Bill Murray), a high end booster of sorts "How does one get last minute tickets to an opera, or the Vey last item of a Catalogue a day before a jeweler changes season?" Using his connections with every hotel in the world Ivan springs for a car from the nearest hotel to save the fugitives. In the car Ivan explains the Crossed Keys have found Serge in a montainside town. Dmitri (Adrian Brody), pissed that Jopling now has made him to do his own paperwork, sends the hood to "convince" Zero's sister and Agatha. Only for the "complete Philistine" to realize that picture, Boy with Apple, Has being replaced by...how to put it....2 naked women...enjoying each other! Jopling has killed Zeros Sister and sent it to Henckles as a clear messafe to stay out of his way!
Nonetheless, the Nazi Brigade search the train to Gableheimer's Peak, Oblivious to the fact, that Gustafe and zero have left a platform ago to reach it by foot, themselves oblivious to the fact that Jopling Already at the mountain.
At the Observation Tower. A group of Monks gives the two fugitives safe passage to their Abbey. Just as Serge has revealed that Madame D wrote a second copy to her will and hid it somewhere before she was murdered, he too is Murdered by a disguised Jopling. Stealing a sled from a shrine to St Bernard, Zero and Gustafe chase Jopling on skis, interfering with a winter games in the process , Ending with Zero knocked out, and Gustafe having a literal Cliffhanger as Jopling looks over the edge, one good thrust from his Jackboot away from causing the concierge his death...until zero recovers and throws Jopling over the cliff...and are rearrested...however Jopling's motorbike is stolen by Zero to save Agatha!
WAR HAS BEING DECLARED IN EUROPE!
Every soldier has being called to every public place of business before heading out. A new concierge, Chuck (Owen Wilson) has allowed the Nazis to turn the hotel in their Barracks. Gustafe, disgusted by this, laments the fall of his home! But when he sees Dmtiri has enlisted, it sparks anger and concern for Agatha inside!
So lets finish this wonderful Masterpiece!
Agatha is trapped in an elevator with Dmitri, Zero and Gustafe, disguised as delivery men, make a bad hash at rescuing her, causing a gun fight between Dmitri and the crossed Keys that puts both parties under arrest, however an errant bullet has made Agatha fall over the Balcony clinging to the painting for her life, however clawing at it for safety has revealed the second will. Luckily, she and zero have landed in the van and all the cakes have softened her fall. With a lawyer in tow, It turns out the secret owner of the Grand Budapest was Madame D, and Gustafe has inherited the hotel. Dmitri is arrested.However it was not be a happy ending. Agatha died, as did her and Zero's unborn child from the Prussian-Greek Flu 2 years later! Gustafe's demise was much earlier. Stopped by a Communist Roadblock. and despite having a visa from the Nazis, the Communists attacks zero. once again Gustafe risks his life to save his friend....this time he was not so lucky, and pays the price! and so story ends, and each recantment goes on it life. the memory of 1936 played out as a play, the story as 1968 as the young Author checks out, the Old Author in 1986 fiddling with a vhs, and 1993 Zuroka as Agatha's descendant at his monument closes her book and leaves!
THIS FILM IS AMAZING!
Anderson's fingerprints, nay, his DNA is etched all over this film. Strong Characterization, Snappy Dialogue, all in a bright and Colourful Crap and Saccharine World. The Story is of Kindness and Cruelty, how one cannot completely unseat the other, how Kindness to someone that may not deserved it like Nazi Captain Henckles and the prisoners, made them help our heroes and how Cruelty may seem to make you Powerful, eventually your day will come!
(There was a knock on the door, and standing were 2 Gards. They explained that a body was found of young girl and because Joe-Jack had previous, he was being asked. the Gards showed Joe-Jacks Mammie the picture of the girl, and she cried "Not Again" with that Joe-Jack was arrested, However Mammie tried to explain that her exclamation was because this girl was already dead, as this girls ghost was haunting them. The Gards continued on their sworn Duty, packaging the unwashed brute in the back of their police car! Joe-Jack maybe a lot of things but a Murderer...we wasn't that anymore, but...A BIGGER PICTURE IS BEING FORMED HERE, AND I WANT TO KNOW WHY A GHOST CHILD IS SO INTERESTED WITH US!)
