Episode 18 - The Grand Budapest Hotel (Audience Request) - a podcast by Movie Podcast

Wes Anderson is like marmite; you either love him or you hate him.  The question is, "what did we think?"  Join your favourite transatlantic podcasting duo - Ian & Liam - as we take up residence in the 2014 Wes Anderson critical favourite, The Grand Budapest Hotel.  We're joined in the lobby by our two would-be lobby boys Ellie and Georgia to discuss an audience request which had us asking some rather unique questions.   It's an 18th Episode that borders on the absurd as we discuss:

• Just how severe is Wes Anderson's rule against adlibbing?


• Which scene required over 40 takes to get right


• What is it with directors kicking their actors in the face.


• How much creepier is Monsieur Gustave if Anderson had his original choice for Tilda Swinton's part


• What's the difference between a cheap cut and a prime fillet


• Is this the best Ralph Fiennes films that we've reviewed on the podcast?


• Can a film be too clever for its own good


• What 2 moral stands does the podcast take during this episode.


• If "The Grand Budapest Hotel" is it the best film ever.
