Based on a story by Bono and featuring a soundtrack by U2, Wim Wenders’s dreamy, surreally stylized vision of life on the margins unfolds in a rundown Los Angeles hotel populated by a coterie of misfits, drifters, and eccentrics. When the death of a resident (Tim Roth) draws an FBI agent (Mel Gibson) into their strange, insular world, truth and delusion begin to blur. Told through the eyes of the tender-hearted Tom Tom (Jeremy Davies), who is hopelessly in love with the enigmatic Eloise (Milla Jovovich), THE MILLION DOLLAR HOTEL finds strange poetry in a world of decaying beauty.
