Viewing Notes

Continuing on with our retrospective of Wes Anderson films; something we decided to do after I took my sons to see Grand Budapest Hotel, which they both loved. Gavin decided he wanted to watch more of Anderson’s movies since he also really liked The Fantastic Mr. Fox.

Since I hadn’t seen as many of Anderson’s movies as I probably should have, I decided we should revisit them all in order. Even though I’d seen Rushmore a long time ago, it was a fun revisit and better than I recalled. Murray in particular is great in this.
