The Darjeeling Limited

At last, I got a chance to see Wes Anderson's latest opus. I was not disappointed. This is a fantastic mix of melancholy family struggles and deadpan humor. It's classically Wanderson styled, and resembles (to me) Royal T-baums, my favorite of his works. The trio of Owen, Brody, and Schwartzman delivers the goods as three brothers with a shaky family history. On top of his usual formula, Wanderson adds an infusion of Indian music (which apparently came from a lot of calssic Indian films) and fantastic imagery. It's soulful and funnt and pretty much perfect. For all lovers of Wes, and movies in general, this is a must.
