I have to say that I think this has become my favorite Wes Anderson film. I have always been a fan, but something about this film drew me in more than The Royal Tenenbaums or The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. I enjoyed the quirkiness of Anderson’s writing more in this film, and I liked the fact that it was set in India. I also really liked Jason Schwartzman‘s acting more than I ever have. In this film, three brothers set off on a trip across India. Their goal is to visit spiritual sites and become close to each other. A series of events throws their plan off course and they are kicked off the Darjeeling in the middle of India.
Rating: ****
