9780810997417: The Wes Anderson Collection

Synopsis

Wes Anderson is one of the most influential voices from the past two decades of American cinema. A true auteur, Anderson is known for the visual artistry, inimitable tone and idiosyncratic characterisations that make each of his fims - Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, The Darjeeling Limited, Fantastic Mr. Fox and Moonrise Kingdom - instantly recognisable as 'Andersonian'. The Wes Anderson Collection is the first in-depth overview of Anderson's flmography, guiding readers through his life and career. Previously unpublished photos, artwork and ephemera complement a book-length conversation between Anderson and award-winning critic Matt Zoller Seitz. The interview and images are woven together in a meticulously designed book that captures the spirit of his flms: melancholy and playful, wise and childish - and thoroughly original.
