Grand Hotel (2008)
Directed by Sławomir Kryński
Handsome, wealthy neurosurgeon Philip Morawski decides to spend the weekend with a sinful young nurse, Dominica. Unfortunately, these romantic plans could upset his doctor wife, who is also staying at the same hotel on business. But for a man who works daily with a scalpel in his hand, there are no insurmountable obstacles.

What critics compared Grand Hotel to
Beery was nominated twice for Oscars and won once (in 1932, for The Champ, the movie he filmed immediately before Grand Hotel).
Beery, who usually played congenial lugs like "The Champ" or, later, Long John Silver, at first refused the part, saying it was too unsympathetic, but MGM told him he'd be the only major character in the cast who would be allowed to speak in a German accent, and that won him over.
