wes anderson kind of weekend....




We've been having an impromtu Wes Anderson film festival this weekend!  So far we've seen Bottle Rocket & Rushmore (either my favorite or 2nd fav Anderson film...Still deciding between that & Royal Tennenbaums)...Anyway we've still got all his others to go through...Thank goodness we've got another week off!
Did you hear? He's going to start work on another film very soon called Moon Rise Kingdom:
Moon Rise Kingdom is set in the 60s. Two young adults fall in love and run away. Leaders in their New England town are sticking the idea that they’ve disappeared and go in search of them. Norton will play a scout leader who brings his charges on a search. Willis is in talks to play the town sheriff who’s also looking, and who is having an affair with the missing girl’s mother, the role McDormand is in talks to play. Murray, a regular in Anderson films, will play the girl’s father, who has his own issues.
Check out Rushmore Academy for all things Wes Anderson!

  1. OK, this blog is inspiring me to see more Wes A. films. My admission is that I haven't seen to many...and I've always felt that he is really one of those filmmakers that if you love you LOVE and if you don't like...you really don't like.

    Your mini-Wes-film festival sounds simply fabulous!
