Wes Anderson is one of those directors who can be recognized at record speed. His pastel-colored worlds, which are located in a completely separate space-time continuum, in which the architecture and interiors seem to lead a life of their own and which are populated by bizarre figures, are unique. The view of these worlds is also a unique one, each picture lovingly framed like a tragicomic painting and, still or in motion, traversed by symmetries. One of his films doesn’t have to run for a minute and you know: this is an Anderson, his pictures speak.
