Watched Bottle rocket (1996), a comedy/crime film directed by Wes Anderson. The story follows 3 friends with not much going on who aspire to become successful criminals. They pull rookie robberies that never pan out while they try to find meaning to their lives. The film reflect on themes of friendship, loyalty and a quest for meaning in the mundane. This is Wes Anderson’s debut feature film. The music was excellent. The movie is not laugh out loud funny but the situations the characters got themselves into were funny. It’s aesthetically beautiful like his other movies, even though he hasn’t fully embraced the symmetry yet in this one. 7.5/10 #nodereviews

Apple Jack is my spirit animal.

The ending hits pretty hard. A few other elements that make it into his later work are the sense of humor, kurt style of dialogue, and part of the cast. Love Wes. Have you seen all his stuff?

The only one I haven’t seen yet is the latest one
