Watch: Hotel Splendide 2000 123movies, Full Movie Online – The Hotel Splendide is on a remote and cold island, accessible only by a once-a-month ferry. It’s a dark and dreary spa created by the late Dame Blanche, whose grown children now run the hotel according to her specificiations, serving up ghastly seaweed and fish-based food and enema treatments. Kath, once the sous chef, arrives when she receives an anonymous letter telling her of the matriarch’s death. Will she bring light into the place with her wonderful cooking?.
Plot: The film tells the story of the Blanche family who run a dark and dismal health resort on a remote island which is only accessible by ferry. The spa program consists of feeding the guests seaweed and eel-based meals, then administering liberal colonic irrigation. The spa is run by the family matriarch Dame Blanche until her death. Things continue on with her children running the resort until Kath, the resort’s former sous chef and love interest of one of the sons, comes back to the island unannounced. Stranded between monthly ferries, she is a catalyst for a series of events that turns life as it is known at Hotel Splendide on its ear.

Don’t miss this weird movie
Watched this on DVD. Never even heard of it until now. I always loved those weird British movies from the sixties and seventies which seem to have disappeared as a genre – until Hotel Splendide. It’s astonishing, like a whole world that just appeared out of nowhere. It’s a story about how families destroy each other and how you have to break away from your childish attitudes and dependency to be free. But, mostly it’s just this completely charming and unpredictable look at a place and a group of people who seem completely real, but couldn’t possibly exist.The movie it most reminded me of was Harold and Maude, though the story and characters are completely unrelated. Just something about the atmosphere and the humour.
Can’t stop thinking about it. A must see
Splendidly, sordidly, spectacular…
A brilliant feature debut by Terry Gross – a monstrous main course to follow his deliciously gross entree “The Sin Eater.” Mr. Gross’s twin leitmotifs – food and sex – are wonderfully combined in this outrageous exercise in romantic, tragi-comic, grande guignol… It’s pointless to try to precis the plot or to attempt to outline the characters, you have to see the picture. YOU HAVE TO SEE THE PICTURE!
