The first Wes Anderson movie I saw was “Rushmore,” and I loved it (might still be my favorite). but I was fortunate enough that shortly after, the Laurelhurst theater showed “Bottlerocket” on the big screen.
Some people like Wes Anderson’s works, and some don’t. For me, I like some more than others, but in the end: I always find them interesting. The Hollywood formulas can barely keep my attention anymore. They’re fine, and no criticism against them, but when directors break the mold, I tend to remain interested.
I find it refreshing that Bruno has friends whose company she enjoys on an intellectual level and doesn’t feel compelled, or even apparently tempted, to jump into a “relationship” with. May be speaking too soon, this is my first Bruno archive binge that got this far.
