[QUOTE="BookTenTiger, post: 9242175, member: 6685541"] I love Wes Anderson, his style really works for me. I can't really rank them in order since they've meant different things to me at different points in my life, but I'll identify my top few: Most Connected With My Youth: Rushmore I was in a failing high school that had an interesting attempt at a mixed English / History / Tech program, but fired the teachers who started it and hired absolutely useless teachers when I started. My friends and I basically taught ourselves how to film and edit movies, and did not learn anything about history or English writing or literature. I both connect a lot with Max's ambitions, and connect with this film because I used the soundtrack for a movie I made during those years. Movie That Feels Like It Was Personally Made For Me: Life Aquatic This one feels like Wes Anderson had a long conversation with me and then made a movie he thought I would enjoy. The stop motion animation, creativity of the ship, David Bowie covers, father issues, makeshift family, a focus on film making... It just hits my heart. I would totally understand if this movie didn't work for someone else, but I love it dearly. Movie I Most Feel Like Will Still Be Watched in 100 Years: Royal Tanenbaums This movie feels like both the blueprint for all the Wes Anderson movies that will come after, and a clear explanation of his thesis. This is the film I feel like film students in the year 2124 will still be watching and appreciating. It's both personal and epic, heartbreaking and heartwarming. And Gene Hackman is just so good! Movie I Feel Is the Peak Anderson: Grand Budapest Hotel This one has everything! The colors! The miniatures! The layered narratives! The great acting! And yet is also has a deep heart I feel is sometimes missing from his most recent works. The relationship between the hotel manager and the main character is really fantastic, and it's one of those movies you wish you could pause and warn the characters to stop here while they're still happy. Just a great movie. [/QUOTE]
