Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe El Royale was built from scratch on a sound stage with much of the furniture and decor being custom made (including branded matchboxes and coasters for the bar). The color scheme was meticulously set out so that the California side was mostly yellows and oranges, while the Nevada side was purples and blues. Red was reserved for the borderline, jukebox, and chandelier, while green is almost entirely absent until the end.
- GoofsMental degradation or impairment in the elderly that was diagnosed in the 1960s would have been lumped under the commonly understood designations of "senility" or "dementia" rather than Alzheimer's, especially when discussing the diagnosis with a patient. Alzheimer's as a common diagnosis was still almost two decades away.
- Quotes
Father Daniel Flynn: Miles, I fell down. I'm old. Shit happens, get the whiskey.
- Crazy creditsThere are almost no opening credits. Only the film's title is shown after the first scene.

Featured review
Surprisingly good
I didn't expect much from this movie when i started it but it was very interesting and good. The story is pretty interesting and the build up is also perfect. It keeps you waiting shrouding you with mystery. The cast is perfect. Personally i thought Jeff bridge's performance was perfect. The other cast also give a solid performance. All in all the movie is very enjoyable and i definitely recommend it
