Introduction by Prof. Noah Isenberg

Supposedly “nothing ever happens” at Berlin's lavish Grand Hotel, but with the right combination of guests a lot can, even in just 24 hours. A baron-turned-jewel thief (John Barrymore) romances an aging ballerina (Greta Garbo), and teams up with a dying accountant (Lionel Barrymore) against his crooked former boss (Wallace Beery) and his secretary/mistress (Joan Crawford). Based on the Broadway play, this Best Picture-winning Hollywood classic offers ensemble acting at its best. D: Edmund Goulding, US, 1932, 112m
