8 Completely Pointless Movie Details That Will Blow Your Mind

8. Wes Anderson Created Hundreds Of Fictitious Paper Props Never Seen On Screen - The Grand Budapest Hotel

Arguably one of the most precise directors on modern screens, Wes Anderson is allowed to be a bit extra sometimes. Considering how beautifully his sets and cinematography come together, his innate colourful style, and his creation of whimsical cinematic fairytales, it's only fair he's picky - which The Grand Budapest Hotel's graphic designer can attest to more than anyone.

Tasked to create no less than 30 of every paper prop both on screen and off, the designer went to ridiculous lengths to ensure the precise replication of each of Zubrowka's charming pages, from blood-stained letters to imaginary currency.

Anderson himself made newspapers that would never been caught on camera and wrote out all their articles, titling them as Trans Alpine Yodel, The Daily Fact, and The Continental Drift, each with their own links to the story and world-building content to further the immersion of his fictional country for none other than the pleasure of those on set.
