A Brief Reading of "The Grand Hotel"

Anabel 2022-01-12 08:01:03

"The Grand Hotel" is an enjoyable movie directed by Edmund Goulding and starring Greta Garbo and John Barrymore.
The following is from Baidu: The story happened in a big hotel in Berlin. That is the whole of Germany is surrounded by many people from different classes. Among them are the presying wealthy tycoon who is in trouble and avoiding the limelight, the ballerina Grusinskaya, who has no choice but to make money, the baron who was ruined by gambling and stole his life, the old family of preysing, Kringelein, the lonely old man, and the young and beautiful but The greedy and selfish stenographer Flaemm.
This may be Baidu's own actor positioning, or the director's original actor profile positioning. I think there is a difference, but the difference is not big, so let's set it like this for the time being.

At the beginning, the protagonists began to bury clues.
The doctor says: The Grand Hotel. People coming. Going. Noting ever happens. This is a very luxurious hotel, the most luxurious hotel in Berlin, but it is extremely crowded, prosperous, and crowded.
Kringelein appeared for the first time. He was a relatively low-level person. He didn't have the attire and behavior of a gentleman, and he was not elegant enough. Even though he lived in a big hotel, he could tell at a glance that he was supposed to be in poverty. He told the doctor that the doctor, do you know that I was sick? The doctor said that when a person's collar is higher than an inch, I know that he is sick. Kringelein is an impatient person, both male and female, full of complaints, about to die, and then race against time. At the same time, it is precisely because he is extremely short of money that he will not leave money in his mouth.
Baron appeared, he was standard gentleman behavior, no matter who it was against. So he has a good relationship with everyone, and likewise, he is showing kindness to Kringgelein.
Preysing and Flaemm met for the first time. Flaemm approached Preying's room and found that he was doing stretching exercises in a very rude look and state. Big waist round. This is in sharp contrast to baron. Baron is always elegant and a master flirt. The roles of several people clash at a time. And this movie happened only within two days. If there is no continuous and complete scene switching, I think it can be adapted into a drama.
Grusinskaya appeared on the stage. She was beautiful and golden. At the same time, she was extremely empty and lonely. She couldn't find the motivation for her life, and she was not positive enough. This is what all actors rely on for survival, and they live by nourishing applause. On the day when Kringelein appeared, Grusinskaya evaded a performance of her own. She felt that she was no longer moving, and she had a mental breakdown. She could not rely on morality in her life and lost her focus. Baron appeared, appeared as a thief, but got her heart.
It's like that sentence, it doesn't matter who you are, the time you appear is the most important. Grusinskaya began to talk to Baron. At this point, the feeling of pity and sympathy made them accept each other. And Grusinskaya also suddenly became a passionate and attractive woman like a trembling flower. So far, this is just what happened in this hotel in one day.
The next day, on the dance floor, the doctor said something like:
flirt a little.dance a little.
A hundred doors leading to one hall.No noe konws anything about the persin next to them.
And when you leave,someone occupies your.room lies in your bed. That's the end.

At the same time preysing uses deception to complete his business negotiations. When a person starts to go astray, he cannot turn his head back.
At the climax of the ballroom party, preysing prepares to maintain the flaremm, and when provoking away flaremm and kringelein, it uses its own identity to disregard and ignore others. And Kringelein, as an image of a working class who has been oppressed for a long time, came to his boss to argue with his own tone. And preysing is annoying performance and existence. Here is a dialogue like this:
You think you're superior, but you're quite an ordinary man.
Even if you did marry money and people like me have got to slave for you for 320 marks a month.
You didn't like to see Me enjoying myself.
the When a man's Working Himself to Death, that's the What his-Paid for.
by You Don;. t Care IF a man cAN Live ON his-Additional Words and Phrases or not
at the same time can be seen from preysing answer, he is extremely selfish, even It is ridiculous that people living in big hotels are nobles, but in fact, none of them are nobles. Even doing it on a patient was extremely rude. Unwilling to forgive others for their faults, the bustling and rushing hotel on the surface is actually full of farce.
Baron gambled to raise money and lost everything.
Life is wonderful, but it's also dangerous.
Even later, I think it's not expensive , it's the acting of a few harlequins.

    The little story in the big hotel, you are here today, and you are the protagonist. Another person arrives tomorrow, and the protagonist is another person! When I was a child, I saw Garbo's "La Traviata" and thought she was beautiful. Looking at her today, I feel that she is so beautiful that it is not real at all. On the contrary, I prefer the performance of Zhong Ge Luo Fu!

    Grand hotel, always the same. People come people go. Nothing ever happens.

Grand Hotel quotes

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

  • [to Preysing, after he tries to get 'familiar' with her by asking her to call him by his first name]

    Flaemmchen: You know I always say that nothing should be left hanging over. And names are like that. Suppose I met you next year and said, 'How do you do Mr. Preysing?' And you said, 'That's the young lady who was my secretary in Manchester.' That's all quite propper. But supposing I saw you and yelled 'Hi baby. Remember Manchester.'

    [he laughs]

    Flaemmchen: Yeah, and you were with your wife. How would you like that?
