    I don't think there is anything "pathetic" about the Baron, he was a gentleman born in his era but not of that era, sympathetic to the weak and polite. He was penniless and represented the end of that "traditional gentleman's age". That's why he fell in love with out-of-date ballet stars—they belonged to a bygone era. Perhaps he died without looking for help from others, which was a "face-to-face" shortcoming. But who doesn't have a flaw? To laugh at him for that alone and think he's not worth...

    Fantastic enclosed space group play! The brothers Lionel & John Barrymore gave an excellent performance, playing a cowardly employee who chose to bravely enjoy life before his death, and a baron who was desperate and went to the road of crime but always had a good heart. The two heroines, Greta Garbo and Joan Crawford, have never seen each other, but they are connected through other characters. The power of love is really great. The changing status of employees and bosses before and after the...

    I remember that CARRIE of SATC also had a Garbo leather coat. I wonder if Garbo will also have the feeling of a character in the play in his later...

    It's actually a love movie, I really feel that after watching it, I really won't believe in love. The love process of the two most in love in the film is very strange, and the kind of love at first sight is uncomfortable. And the two people who got happiness in the end belonged to temporary partners, or the one who didn't believe in love very much. But the presence of a doctor is an interesting setup. The generalized remarks at the beginning and end of the film gave me the...

    The Grand Hotel is like a stage of life, with different plays being staged every day. Among the many actors, there is always one of you and one of me. People come and go, but nothing seems to happen. "People come. People go. Nothing ever happens." || The heroine is either lost or excited, making me think of...

Grand Hotel quotes

  • Grusinskaya: Can you imagine a hundred girls in the ballet school, each thinking she would become the most famous dancer in all the world? I was ambitious then. We were drilled like little soldiers. No rest, no stopping. I was little, slim, but hard as a diamond. Then I became famous and - But why am I telling you all this? Last night, I didn't know you at all. Who are you, really?

    Baron Felix von Geigern: What?

    Grusinskaya: I don't even know your name.

    Baron Felix von Geigern: [laughs] I am Felix Benvenuto Freihern von Geigern. My mother called me "Flix".

    Grusinskaya: [joyously] No! Flix! Oh, that's sweet. And how do you live? And what kind of a person are you?

    Baron Felix von Geigern: I'm a prodigal son, the black sheep of a white flock. I shall die on the gallows.

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