Abrams & Chronicle Books The Wes Anderson Collection: The Grand Budapest Hotel, mehrfarbig, 71571

Habe mich voll auf das Buch gefreut, da ich den Film so cool finde. Ja es sind tolle Hintergrundinfos drin aber der Funke sprang nicht über. Dachte es wären mehr Zeichnungen drin vom Aufbau des Sets etc. Hab es retourniert

Beautiful photos, stories, and interviews. A fantastic addition to your repertoire if you love Wes Anderson's artistic approach and use of color.

Regalo ideal para cualquier coleccionista y amante de Wes Anderson. El Gran Hotel Budapest es una película gloriosa y muy bella, a la par que este precioso libro de arte de la película. Tiene muchísimo contenido inédito y texto, es muy completo y está cuidado hasta el último detalle. Las pastas son de muy buena calidad, duritas, y el diseño de la portada es como para enmarcarlo (y los detalles en relieve son una pasada, genial al tacto).El diseño del libro es una maravilla, te quedas embobado a cada página que pasas. Sin duda una muy buena compra y ojalá saquen (o yo descubra) más libros de esta colección porque los querré todos. Muy recomendado.

Great book!

Great paper quality. Very insightful. The only thing I wish was included in it was w separate interview with the graphic designer Annie Atkins. The introduction was very beautifully written. There is a trailer of it on vimeo somewhere with an animation.

映画がとても気に入ったので、記念に購入しました。日本語版が高いので英語版にしました。輸入品なので小さな汚れなどはありかなと思います。表紙も含め、映画の世界観を再現した良い本です。

This book is just beaming with so much life and beauty! This book is incredibly perfect for Wes Anderson fans!

Wes Anderson "channels" Stefan Zweig...and Matt Zoller Seitz chronicles the resulting movie.Matt Zoller Seitz is the author of "The Wes Anderson Collection", a coffee-table book about the previous Wes Anderson films. He returns with a second book, "The Wes Anderson Collection: The Grand Budapest Hotel", which is devoted to the filming, the writing, the scoring; hell...every part of the making of the movie. It's very detailed and a fine book for any Wes Anderson fan.I am not a rabid "Wes Anderson fan". I've liked several of his movies and not others. I adored "The Royal Tenenbaums" and still wonder if the reason it struck such a chord with me and many others is that it happened to be released in December, 2001. It's melancholy sadness seemed "right" for the time as we coped with the after effects of 9/11. I cry every time I see the movie; maybe it still makes it okay to cry for the other event? I don't know, and that's a subject for another review.Anyway, it was 2014 when "Budapest" was released. Sort of based on the stories of the exiled Stefan Zweig, Wes Anderson brought us an imaginary look at 1930's Mittel Europa and the great hotels where guests "took the waters" for weeks at a time. A large ensemble cast surrounds the superb acting by Ralph Feinnes as "M Gustave", the lead concierge at the "Budapest". The story is silly and poignant and thought-provoking, all at the same time. And along with the acting, the music, the sets, and the costumes were also memorable. Anderson's story takes place every where from the grand hotel, to a wealthy old woman's castle house, to a forbidding prison, to a monastery high in the mountains, then, finally, back to the not-so-grand hotel. The cinematography makes everything look right.How much of the movie is "fact" and how much is "atmosphere"? There are no Nazis in the film; other troops belonging to the "Zig Zag" movement are there, instead. Newspaper headlines speak of the threat of war, but we're not sure exactly where the imaginary country of "Zubrowska" is located, though "the border" seems to be well-manned, making travel and border crossings difficult. This was largely true in the Central European mix of nations in the 1930's.Matt Zoller Seitz's book is a complete look at the movie and the filmmakers, along with the man whose life and work inspired the movie. There is a lengthy section with selections of Stefan Zweig's writings. (For those who want to read an excellent book about Zweig, look for "The Impossible Exile: Stefan Zweig at the End of the World" by George Prochnik, published in 2014.) Zoller Seitz interviewed the director, the actors, the technical crews...but most of all, he interviewed Wes Anderson. Anderson, that quirky and meticulous director - is he a genius? - is quite candid about all the aspects of the making of the "The Grand Budapest Hotel". This is a large and wonderful book and a good companion to the movie. (By the way, is anyone else upset that Ralph Feinnes didn't get nominated for an Oscar?)
