Do not miss this movie!

A lot has changed since 1932, when this film was first released. After watching this movie I realise that not all the changes in film making since then have been for the better. 
A few of the stars from this movie made such an impact that they are still known today, such as Greta Garbomay and Joan Crawford. But It isn't the stars, cinematography or acting that will win you over. The... read more

Really great Garbo movie, with all the thrills of love and deception in a ritzy Hotel.

This doesn't belong in the top 50, let alone the top 5. The other 49 I think are the finest movies made. This is overblown, overacted, overrated. Very dated and, unless you care about these actors as celebrities, not very interesting.
Description:
This Academy Award winner for Best Picture is a sweeping soap opera about the guests at the Grand Hotel. Several plots intertwine, but mostly it's about Stars! Stars! Stars! Greta Garbo, Joan Crawford, Wallace Beery, and both Barrymore brothers head up the cast. Garbo is luminous as Grusinskaya, the neurotic and famous-but-slipping dancer and, yes, she "vonts to be alone." John Barrymore is a cat burglar with blue blood and a heart of gold, and Lionel Barrymore happily caroms off him as Mr. Kringelein, a dying man who wants to live out the time he has left with the rich. Joan Crawford is perhaps the biggest surprise of

Taste of Cinema's Essential Pre-Code Hollywood (30 movies items)"Often treated as the first all-star movie, MGM’s production takes place in Berlin’s glamorous Grand Hotel. There we find an anguished ballerina ( Greta Garbo), a bankrupt aristocrat who has resorted to common thievery ( John Barrymore), a dying old man ( Lionel Barrymore), a corrupt industrial tycoon (Wallace Beery) and a young, tough stenographer (Joan Crawford). In 1932 Hollywood, the idea of having multiple stories in a film, without necessarily separating them in installments, was quite"

TCM's Essentials: 52 Must See Movies (52 movies items)"“This movie fascinates me because it was the first all-star film…. It also started movies in which several different stories play out and are interlinked together…. It’s amazing to me how good Joan Crawford is in it. Better than Garbo, I think.” -Robert Osborne “ really steals the show. She is so strong yet she has this great sort of looseness, this freedom about her, this casual elegance that really blew me away…. She’s amazing.” -Drew Barrymore"
