the Film: |
|
Three American brothers who have not spoken to one another
in a year set off on a train voyage across India with
a plan to find themselves and bond with each other - to
become brothers again like they used to be. Their "spiritual
quest" however, veers rapidly off-course and they
eventually find
themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert
with eleven suitcases, a printer and a laminating machine.
At this moment, a new, unplanned journey suddenly begins.

REVIEW by Jean:
Wes Anderson’s films are definitely an acquired taste. The
Darjeeling Limited parallels many other comedic quest-seeking
road trips. Anderson’s adaptation follows three emotionally
unstable brothers Francis (Owen Wilson), Peter (Adrien Brody),
and Jack (Jason Schwartzman) on a train. Although the plot
is not totally original, I must accredit Anderson with the
full circle conclusion of the film.
It contains reminiscences of a classic novel, something
that seems to be almost lost in today’s society. Regardless,
the film almost seems underdeveloped. Most of the film is
dedicated to revealing these characters, and only shows
the growth the brothers in the last 30 minutes. The comedy
of this film, though, can only be appreciated by fans of
Wes Anderson; at the most humorous times of this film I
was only able to produce a smile.
The artistry of this film is simply breathtaking. The beautiful
landscape and vivid colors captured by Anderson truly shows
India in a new light. The combination of the soundtrack
and the camera shots presents a significant character that
has no dialogue. Overall, this movie is charming and entertaining.
It is in no way a blockbuster film, but is a sweet artistic
tale.
