THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL recounts the adventures of Gustave H, a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars, and Zero Moustafa, the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting and the battle for an enormous family fortune -- all against the back-drop ofa suddenly and dramatically changing Continent.
Typically stylish but deceptively thoughtful, The Grand Budapest Hotel finds Wes Anderson once again using ornate visual environments to explore deeply emotional ideas.

RANTS, RAVES & RAMBLINGS FROM THE HEAD HONCHO

Ok, I know there are a lot of my film students out there reading this right now...
So: Howdy!
Do you want me to resume my film classes this summer?
I had ceased doing my classes for Richland last Fall when it just became too much for me to do after 13 years...
-What with our new theater/bar/restaurant in Sterling, Illinois, and the constant demands of the Avon, plus...I'm not getting any younger!
(In another year I'll be 40!)

Soooooo: I'm seriously thinking about doing my most popular class "OVERLOOKED FILMS" this summer!
It would probably start in mid-June and run until early August.

ARE YOU INTERESTED??
If not, then I'm just gonna forget about it....
BUT...IF YOU ARE INTERESTED...
EMAIL ME AT: Skip at theAvon.com and say you will enroll if I do them, ok???
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
BUY AND SPEND LOCALLY!!
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Come See Us this Weekend!! 
The corn is popping; the REAL butter is melting; and we're looking for YOU!!
-Skip Huston

NO DOUBT ABOUT IT...
