Talking Pictures

This week we’re checking into The Grand Budapest Hotel, Wes Anderson’s bittersweet masterpiece about a legendary concierge, his loyal lobby boy, and a world slowly disappearing into memory. From stolen paintings and pastries, prison breaks and perfume, we explore why this dazzling caper remains one of Anderson’s most beloved films, and perhaps the film that reaches furthest beyond the director’s familiar preoccupations.

This week, Talking Pictures tackles Sinners, Ryan Coogler's supernatural thriller that shot straight onto the Letterboxd Top 250 after release. A movie about vampires in 1930s Mississippi that ends up saying so much more than that — and one that's already hard to stop rewatching.
