And yet, the story is not his.

Actors go their whole careers searching for roles like M. Gustave.

The personification of incongruity, Gustave is a wonderful creation that Fiennes illuminates in his first collaboration with Anderson.

From the history of the transitioning government officials, epitomized by the truly sociable fascist Capt.

Thus, Andersons intentional departure from this early splendor is all the more fascinating.

Each era is brilliantly complimented with a contrasting color palate and even aspect ratio.

The tone of each transition matches accordingly.

Predators stalk prey through charmingly elegant death traps and for the first time, formal niceties are strikingly absent.

Still, this movie remains at its core a brilliant Wes Anderson creation.
