Research Catalogue (long awaited because of stupid google account and the apple mac's hatred towards me!)

Finally got back on to my blog after a day of trying thank god! Heres my research catalogue for Wes Anderson still loads more to add!



Research Catalogue

 

Films

Rushmore (1998)

the film Rushmore was actually inspired by Anderson life at St Johns private prep school I chose this film because while the mean character is doing well in extracurricular activities he isnt doing so well in his actual studies which i feel links to the portrayal of characters who are isolated and lost

 

The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)

This film is significant because it is about an estranged family which includes the father leaving the family which could make them feel lost and isolated later he returns to make things right. i feel this movie is ironic because as a young child Anderson's father also walked out on his and brothers up bringing i believe he is channelling his hopes in to this film because he himself felt lost with out his father in his childhood.

 

Bottle Rocket (1996)

i chose this film because the plot revolves a round a trio of friends looking for success in a simple robbery however the main character "Anthony Adams" as just been released from a mental hospital which pretty much screams lost and isolated also i feel if three friends are willing to risk their freedom for a cheap frill from the robbery they must all feel lost and isolated to just go to those extremes
