Directed by Oscar-winner Jan Kadar THE BLUE HOTEL is an adaptation of the classic short story by Stephen Crane, now considered one of the most innovative American writers.. Nebraska in the 1880's: bleak, lonely, and far from what you'd expect The Wild West to be. But a naive Swedish immigrant is living the quintessential western fantasy. No one can convince The Swede that his dime-store notions about The West are foolish. He sees murderous intentions all around him and in his terror, he turns everybody against him.. Inevitably, the Swede attracts tragedy. However, who is responsible? The negative Swede? Or the cliquish hotel guests? (less)
