rewatched these recently and theyâre so great. Touching and funny and really striking sets/shots.
Reminded me of how good Wes Anderson is beyond all the memes. I know people clown on some of his tendencies as a director but the guy knows how to make a fuckin movie.

Wes Anderson films are just so gorgeous in general, so I'd reccomend just checking out films he's directed.
The colour grading in his films are so amazing!!

Everything he touches turns to solid gold. My new favorite movie is Asteroid City and the one before that was The Grand Budapest Hotel. He is an amazing director and his art direction is some of the most pleasing to the eye I have seen. Love his movies so much and I LOVE WILLEM DAFOE.

The old-timey aspects of his various narratives notwithstanding (from âFantastic Mr. Foxâ to âLife Aquaticâ to âFrench Dispatchâ and âGrand Budapestâ and everything in between), I can basically boil That Wes Thing â˘ď¸ down to a few consistent visual tropes:
* Ubiquitous symmetry
* Tableau compositions
* Very deliberate/narrow color palettes
* LOOOOOOOONG takes (He loves them)
We have been known to stage quasi Wes film festivals sometimes and just binge a bunch of his films back to back.

Sometimes you can just exist. you donât (hopefully) need 50 hustles. You donât need to be a writer and musician and artist and podcaster and influencer and girlboss or whatever. you donât even need to signal how cool or smart or attractive you are. I know itâs hard cause I think our society incentives (forces?) people to be âonâ all the time, but itâs probably better for your own sake to just exist for yourself and your love ones and to adjust your expectations of what a successful or meaningful life is.
Sorry for being pedantic, just know a lot of friends and family my age or younger that seem to be struggling right now in all sorts of ways. Just know, regardless of what anyone says or even what you say or do, that you guys have inherent dignity and you are worth something
