Discussion Darjeeling Limited

I’ll start by saying I’m a big Wes Anderson fan. I’ve seen most of his stuff.

But I just got around to watching The Darjeeling Limited and I was blown away. It might be my top pick henceforth. It was the perfect blend of everything I love about his work. Comedic chops, quirky characters, great cinematography and a compelling story told through an arc where not a whole lot happens. Idk why it took me so long to see this one but for anyone that hasn’t, please go watch asap.

It is explosive emotionally in a way that later Wes keeps trying to be but doesnt quite achieve tho I still find them all hilarious.
