Concept Explanation
The book-shaped die line was chosen because there’s a book theme in the movie: the owner of the hotel writes a book in 1968 about the Grand Budapest Hotel hay days in 1930s (that time when M. Gustave was working there). The movie starts with the scene when the girl holds that book and visits the monument of the writer.
