The Uchōten Hotel(THE 有頂天ホテル,THE Uchōten Hoteru) (also known as Suite Dreams and Wow-Choten Hotel) is a 2006 comedy film written and directed by Japanese directorKōki Mitani. The film is set in a five star Tokyo hotel on New Year's Eve, and follows the misadventures of various hotel staff and guests in the run-up to midnight.
The film is reminiscent of the Hollywoodscrewball comedies of the 1930s and 1940s, and explicitly references the 1932 film Grand Hotel, whose plot also followed the interlinked lives of various characters in a fictional hotel over a short period.
Cast members include: Koji Yakusho (Heikichi Shindo, the hotel accommodation manager), Takako Matsu (Hana Takemoto, the chamber-maid with a case of mistaken identity), Kōichi Satō (Katsutoshi Mutōda, the disgraced politician), Shingo Katori (Kenji Tadano, the bell boy with musical aspirations), Ryoko Shinohara (Yōko, the call girl), Keiko Toda (Tokiko Yabe, the deputy accommodation manager), Katsuhisa Namase (Takashi Seo), Kumiko Aso (Naomi Ohara), YOU (Cherry Sakura) and Toshiyuki Nishida (Zenbu Tokugawa, the aging enka star).
My favorite scene from the movie Uchoten Hotel.
Kenji, the bellman, works at the hotel part time and is an aspiring musician. He has decided to give up on his dream of being a musician because it hasn't been going anywhere, and to move back to his hometown to take over his parents' fruit shop. He's on his last shift at the hotel and coincidentally ends up going on a call to the room where Zenbu Tokugawa, a famous enka singer, is staying. In the next room, Senator Mutoda, a junior politician who has been forced to take the blame in a corruption scandal involving his political mentor, is torn between coming clean to the public or keeping silent and taking the fall to keep his political ties intact, and has decided to kill himself.

I had to chop it up a bit to get the entire sequence to fit on youtube, so the editing here is not exactly as it appears in the movie.

When you check in the cheatin' hotel, you'll be back For another spin at the wheel and a race at the track They're off and runnin' down at the bar This is Heather - This is John They're all down at the cheatin' hotel lookin' for fun Yea I'm the bartender in here and it's quite a scene The women get dressed to kill and slip off their rings Their husbands meet them an hour later She'll have friends all around the table And introduce the old man as one of her latest flings Then they go out on the dance floor Now there's a new man to sway for And touch and talk and sip some more red wine Then the slow dances get much closer And now's the time for low words That guy there with your wife's my husband but it's OK Then I watch all of them leave Then they share a stare and a squeeze Now I don't know if it's wrong or right I'm sure it feels good at the time But if you keep on playin' this game you'll lose your mind 'Cause they're thinkin' about him or her Then they feel like a piece of dirt It's time to check out of the cheatin' hotel and go home for good We get quite a few attractive lonely wives They come in the bar together about six forty-five And sit down and say with their eyes My friend and I are lookin' for a good time It don't take long to find a couple of guys at the cheatin' hotel And then they go out on the dance floor Now they got a new man to sway for And touch and talk and sip some more red wine Then the slow dances get much closer And now they whisper low words Are you married, why yes I am but that's OK And they know it's really not, look at all the trouble they got If you check in the cheatin' hotel Somebody somewhere's gonna tell And you'll be in the room from hell and you can't get away The light blinks on and off Bartender last round for us all
