Review of Grand Hotel (2008) by Leighton T — 13 Aug 2009

The impressive element of the film is the way they manage to bring what feels like a series of vignettes together (and the cast), in the end, forming one story. The cast is incredible with a great many screen legends gracing this picture.

Both Greta Garbo and Joan Crawford are luminescent imbibing the picture with both bite and grace. While I don't think it's a stand-out among the Best Picture crowd, it's a fine film and I can see why it's held in high regard for such an early picture.
