Did He Like It?
Synopsis
While the story (adapted by screenwriter Thomas Vinterberg), the structure, and much of the language remain true to the film--a family gathers to celebrate the 60th birthday of the family partriarch--"Jarzyna's production, with its two long tables laid out at right angles, brings to mind not just Chekhov but a whole range of Shakespeare plays: Hamlet obviously, with its theme of buried family secrets, but even more specifically, Macbeth, with the sense of a ceremonial banquet thrown into disarray through the intrusion of ghosts from the past" (The Guardian).
A Haunted Hotel, a Haunted Family: Who Let the Ghosts Out?

"Big hotels can be creepy, even when they’re not swarming with cultish conventioneers. Just think of the Overlook in the 1980 movie “The Shining,” the place that drove Jack Nicholson even further around the bend than usual."
