Hotel Chevalier (Wes Anderson, 2007)



Hotel Chevalier (Wes Anderson, 2007)
Rating: 7.8

This 12 minute short prelude to Anderson's new feature The Darjeeling Limited remains very consistent with his previous work. Subtle humor, beautiful set designs, long lenses, fast pans, great soundtrack including Peter Sarstedt's 60s hit "Where Do You Go To My Lovely", and he even manages to slip in a signature slow motion sequence. As an extra bonus Natalie Portman gets naked.
