Stateless Remember that 2000 Wim Wenders movie Million Dollar Hotel? It starred Mel Gibson back when he was actually a big movie star and not a national joke. Its about a bunch of disjointed people coming together at a Los Angeles hotel and even Mel Gibson said it was as boring as a dogs ass. The public agreed and it made a whopping $59,989. Latter-day Ernest movies made about five thousand times more than that. But its noteworthy here because Bono wrote the screenplay and U2 contributed some songs to the soundtrack, which is infinitely more enjoyable than the movie. The best of the bunch is the haunting Stateless, though like all things associated with Million Dollar Hotel, its been completely lost to time.
