A Mediocre Movie With An Uplifting Message


Studying hospitality at the moment, I can definitely look up to this moving. It has a great message for those of us trying to get into the industry, and work at 1st Class City Hotels. The speech Lionel says at the end "To serve people takes great dignity and intelligence. They are only people with money, though we serve them, we are not their servants." If you work in the hospitality/service industry, that speech means a lot.
If anyone knows of any other good hospitality themed movies (other than Dirty Dancing of course), please let me know!

You may like Gosford Park. It is an upstairs/downstairs look at Edwardian life. The servants upstage the aristocrats.

It is really worth watching if you are interesed in theme you mentioned above.

I liked you post by the way. I dont work in the hospitality industry, but from my job in a modern art gallery, I can very much relate!
