    Yes.

    Have you seen the series: The Gentlemen and the new one, Mob Land?

    Reminds me I forgot to watch his last movie. Love Wes but nothing tops the original trinity of Bottle Rocket, Tenenbaums (maybe Hackman’s best role?) and Rushmore.

    Anderson's kinda/sort answer to the Coens' Hudsucker Proxy, maybe? I really like the look of it. Looks like a return to some sort of narrative after that weird Southwestern alien flick with no plot.
