Trailer
Why watch the movie The Royal Hotel?
"After directing the excellent The Assistant, filmmaker Kitty Green returned to the world of toxic masculinity with The Royal Hotel. Once again starring Julia Garner, the film presents a premise that, on its own, is already distressing: two friends (Garner and Jessica Henwick) travel through Australia and agree to work at a bar-hotel in the country's interior to make some money. From there, Green creates a tragic scenario, with a desperate tonal growth, in which men stand in the way of these characters in violent and/or ulterior ways. It doesn't have the strength of The Assistant, a film that surprises by portraying the misogyny of the job market and the film industry with interesting insight, but The Royal Hotel reaffirms how Kitty Green is an interesting filmmaker who knows how to address today's toxic masculinity."
