The text describes a situation where four friends with different movie preferences are trying to choose a film to watch together. We have four friends and their preferences: a) Harry likes action movies and thrillers. b) Ann gets sick when she sees blood and is scared of vampires. This implies she dislikes horror or gore. c) Sheila values jokes and humour more than anything, meaning she prefers comedies. d) Alan gets bored if no one is killed, implying he likes action or thriller movies with violence. The film described is "Hotel 'Desire'", a real-life drama of two lovers destined to be apart. This film is not an action movie or thriller with killings (which would satisfy Harry and Alan). It is also not a comedy (for Sheila). It is a drama, meaning there could be blood (bad for Ann), but since she is mainly scared of vampires, this option does not fit any of the four friends' tastes. Therefore, it is difficult to determine which of them will be suited to this movie. Since the movie genre is drama, none of the friends' tastes are directly fulfilled. Ann probably least of all would enjoy this movie, and therefore this movie will not be a great choice for them. But because the question asks us to pick the friend for whom the movie would be the best choice, it has to be one of them. Without further information to select one of the four friends for whom the movie best suits, it is difficult to answer definitively.
