This is a group for fans of the writer and director Wes Anderson. Simply stated, Wes Anderson is the most orginal presence in American film comedy since Preston Surges. Like Sturges, his confidence is boundless, and he has a similarly keen ear for gaudy dialogue; a gift for surprise, and for topping one joke with a bigger one; a knack for rooting out archaetypes hitherto untouched in movies; and a penchant for making films that feel like pageants, composed of a democratically diverse cross-section of humanity. Wes Anderson has such films under his belt as Bottle Rocket (1996), Rushmore (1998), The Royal Tenenbaums(2001) and the newest film which will be released this Christmas, The Aquatic Life With Steve Zissou(2004). It was once said about Wes Anderson, that "Wes Anderson...has a special type of talent: He knows how to convey the simple joys and interactions between people so well and with such richness. This kind of sensibility is rare in movies."
