![]() ![]() The group includes Anthony (Luke Wilson) just got out of the nut house and is searching for himself. It's about a group of misfit friends that decide to take up a life of crime. This movie is director Wes Anderson's (Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic) feature directorial debut. Martin Scorsese actually said this is one of his favorite movies, that he watch multiple times. Owen does the thing he does also beautifully, being this really optimistic enthusiastic guy but that's actually kind of sad and lonely inside, just brilliant peformens. Luke really seem depressed, it's actually a really good portrait of a chronically depressed person. And Owen and Luke plays their roles perfectly. Some nice songs are included in the soundtrack also. And well paced, even if perhaps a bit slow, I think it works well here. that's okey! The movie is also very funny. To me, what this movie is saying, is that we all try to be something we're not sometimes, we all have issues, we're all failures on some level and we all have insecurities, but. And it's a really nice thing, something rare you don't see from any other movies, not in the same way at least. It's a comedy but also with this sad tone, that I actually think is Wes Anderssons trade mark by now. They're thieves sure, but they kind of give you the sense they actually couldn't hurt a fly. But they're very far from any tough hard boild gangsters. The film is about a bunch of guys that thinks that the life of crime is the way to go. This film also has this very family like tone, that I think comes from that almost everybody involved are real good friends, doing this together, trying to make their first movie, and also that the two leads are actual real brothers playing brothers. And you can really already recognize his artistic style, even if much smaller budget then his later films. ![]()
