"It's been a long, hard winter, and you could use a little whimsy in your life. Wes Anderson's latest, The Grand Budapest Hotel, is the most whimsical, fun, adorable, just generally awesome thing to hit theaters in recent memory. Which is to say: You should go!\n\nIf you're not familiar with the esteemed moviemaker, he's the guy behind Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, Moonrise Kingdom, and Fantastic Mr. Fox. All the films on his very impressive resume share a certain endearing tweeness. They're mesmerizing and all-consuming and make you feel like you're part of an entirely different world where everything's ornately decorated and everyone's brilliantly stylish.\n\nAnd while all of his previous movies are serious must-sees, if you're into witty humor and clever plot twists (which, duh, of course you are), The Grand Budapest Hotel is basically the jewel in Wes Anderson's already-sparkly crown. It's a story within a story within a story within a story\u2014did you catch that? Sounds confusing, but it's anything but because the script is so smartly written and the story\u2014or stories, rather\u2014are so brilliantly told.\n\nHere's why you'll dig the film:\n\nLoads of amusing Wes Anderson-isms.\n\n There are madcap hijinks (including, but not limited to, breaking out of jail, stealing valuable family heirlooms, and police chases). There are crazy-gorgeous sets that'll make you want to pack your bags and buy a one-way ticket to the Grand Budapest Hotel, located in the glorious Republic of Zubrowka which isn't a real place but should be. And there are so many clever, blink-and-you'll-miss-it details that a double-showing is almost a must.\n\nPretty much everyone's in it.\n\n Aside from a few young guns\u2014a truly outstanding Saoirse Ronan and newcomer Tony Revolori\u2014this flick counts Ralph Fiennes, Tilda Swinton, Jude Law, and L\u00E9a Seydoux among it's A-list cast. There's also all the Wes Anderson regulars: Jason Schwartzman, Adrien Brody, Waris Ahluwalia, Owen Wilson, Bill Murray, William Dafoe, and a bunch of other industry vets your parents probably love.\n\nTony Revolori is gonna be your new fave.\n\n The 17-year-old rising star steals the spotlight\u2014which isn't an easy task considering he's sharing the screen with longtime Hollywood faves and multiple Oscar winners who've been acting for a million years (cumulatively, at least). The young actor beat out literally thousands of hopefuls for the role, and we're so glad he did because no one could have worn a drawn-on mustache with as much elegance as this guy.\n\nYoung love!\n\n Tony's character, Zero, who you'll fall head over heels in love with, falls head over heels in love with Saoirse's character, Agatha, a sweet baker with a Mexico-shaped birthmark (see: amusing Wes Anderson-ism) and an enviable crown braid. That's all we can really say, except that it's an adorably sweet relationship. And we're not just saying that because she bakes really, really tasty pastries for a living.\n\nNow go see it! But first, watch the trailer.\n\n"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
