WES ANDERSON

After the post on Hitchcock, I thought I'd do a few posts on my favourite directors. Wes Anderson's films skillfully combine dry humour and bizarre characters with unusual yet poignant plot lines. They often feature eccentric and precocious younger characters (Max in Rushmore; Richie in The Royal Tenenbaums), bastard old men (Royal Tenenbaum; Herman Blume in Rushmore), dysfunctional families (The Tenenbaums; the Whitman brothers in The Darjeeling Limited), and...well just plain weirdos (Margot in The Royal Tenenbaums; Steve Zissou in The Life Aquatic). All films have brilliant soundtracks and phenomenal casts.
