Isle of Dogs
A stop-motion feature film in the style of Wes Anderson, known for movies like 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' and 'Moonrise Kingdom'. This is the second time the director has ventured into the world of animation, the first being 'Fantastic Mr. Fox', highly praised by critics and nominated for an Oscar. With the mask of children's production, 'Isle of Dogs' criticizes society and interventions made by indifferent politicians to public opinion. An excellent movie that will entertain fans of Wes Anderson and also those looking for a good story.
![Bottle Rocket](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/bottle-rocket83842.jpeg)
Bottle Rocket
Martin Scorsese named it one of his favorite films of the 90s: Wes Anderson's directorial debut, "The Thief Who Stole From Another Thief", co-written by Anderson and Owen Wilson. Better known by its original title, "Bottle Rocket," the movie isn't perfect but already shows off Anderson's trademark style: Eccentric characters in even stranger conflicts, set in a world of primary colors and symmetrical frames. The on-screen chemistry between brothers Owen and Luke Wilson, along with Robert Musgrave, make this movie a small gem.
![Rushmore](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/rushmore2843.jpeg)
Rushmore
Wes Anderson's second movie is one of his best, and shows his characteristic style much more polished. More commonly known by its original title, 'Rushmore', this film also marked the beginning of the director's collaborations with Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray, whose career took a second wind. The two form one of the most atypical duos of nineties cinema, between naivety and desperation, making them a real delight on screen.
![The Royal Tenenbaums](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/the-royal-tenenbaums99839.jpeg)
The Royal Tenenbaums
This is one of Wes Anderson's most renowned films, with an all-star cast: Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Bill Murray, Danny Glover, Gwyneth Paltrow, Owen Wilson, Ben Stiller, and Luke Wilson. "The Royal Tenenbaums," with another script by Anderson and Luke Wilson, is a great adult comedy that relies on humor to tackle such dark topics as heartbreak, frustration, and resentment.
![The Darjeeling Limited](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/the-darjeeling-limited21778.jpeg)
The Darjeeling Limited
The fifth movie by Wes Anderson is one of his lesser known, yet it exudes quality. 'The Darjeeling Limited' has all the trademarks of the director: a symmetrical and colorful aesthetic as the backdrop for a dramedy about a dysfunctional family, tied together with their own resentments and ironies. The film stars Owen Wilson ('Midnight in Paris'), Adrien Brody ('The Pianist') and Jason Schwartzman ('Rushmore'), and is also the first screenplay that Anderson co-wrote with Roman Coppola.
![The Grand Budapest Hotel](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/the-grand-budapest-hotel7141.jpeg)
The Grand Budapest Hotel
For both critics and Wes Anderson fans, 'The Grand Budapest Hotel' is one of the director's great gems, and it's no wonder. It has a witty and moving story, brought to life with incomparable art direction and a fantastic cast that exudes chemistry and balance, featuring names like Ralph Fiennes, Saoirse Ronan, Tilda Swinton, Adrien Brody, Jeff Goldblum and Willem Dafoe - some of whom are already familiar with the director's partnership. Nominated for nine Oscars (including Best Picture) and winner of four: Best Production Design, Best Makeup and Hair, Best Costume Design and Best Original Score.
![The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/the-life-aquatic-with-steve-zissou19194.jpeg)
The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou
Some say this is one of the best movies by Wes Anderson, and for others it's the worst. Regardless of the verdict, 'The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou' stands out for the director's particular aesthetic, which in the underwater context lends itself to visually striking eccentricities. Black humor and irony are also present in Bill Murray's performance, and in Anderson's script written in his first collaboration with Noah Baumbach.
![Moonrise Kingdom](https://media.filmelier.com/images/filmes/thumb/moonrise-kingdom93781.jpeg)
Moonrise Kingdom
Easily one of Wes Anderson's best-achieved films, 'Moonrise Kingdom' (also known by the title 'The Kingdom of the Sunray Moon') is a nostalgic exploration of the purest childhood love, facing up to the cynicism of adult relationships. The movie was nominated for an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, written by Anderson and Roman Coppola in their second collaboration.
![The French Dispatch](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/A233HT/thumb/the-french-dispatch_wSEbh7M.jpeg)
The French Dispatch
If you've watched other films by filmmaker Wes Anderson - such as 'Fantastic Mr. Fox', 'Isle of Dogs' and 'Moonrise Kingdom' - you know exactly what to expect from 'The French Dispatch': extravagant lyricism, refined humor, polished aesthetics, beautiful cinematography, a story based on subtleties, and lots and lots of eccentricity. This time, the director and screenwriter makes a great homage to literary journalism, with the publication 'The French Dispatch' clearly inspired by the magazine 'The New Yorker'. Thus, we follow the gaze of American journalists in the fictional French city of Ennui - all inspired by important names in the North American press, such as Harold Ross, Joseph Mitchell and James Baldwin. In anthology format, the feature film seeks to address the most diverse topics, such as the value and interpretation of art, human relationships, love, sex, the search for youth for revolution and the clash with conservatism, gentrification and even journalistic neutrality. The cast is stellar, including names like Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Elisabeth Moss, Tilda Swinton, Benicio del Toro, Adrien Brody, Léa Seydoux, Frances McDormand, Timothée Chalamet, Christoph Waltz, Jeffrey Wright, Mathieu Amalric, Liev Schreiber, Edward Norton, Willem Dafoe and Saoirse Ronan - all in major or minor roles, some appearing for just a few seconds. It is certainly not the most accessible film by Wes Anderson, requiring the viewer, in some way, to orbit or have a taste for the themes brought to the screen, in addition to an affection for the director's style. If that is the case, you will certainly find a love letter to literary journalism and art, including cinematography.
![Poison](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/6UmgDk/thumb/poison_lQVzLxA.jpeg)
Poison
The fourth short film in Wes Anderson's Netflix tetralogy inspired by Roald Dahl. "Poison" also has a simple premise: a man wakes up, feels that there is a snake next to him in his bed, and his partner and a doctor work to save him. With entertaining performances by Benedict Cumberbatch, Dev Patel, Ben Kingsley, and Ralph Fiennes, the short film strikes a good balance between Dahl's eccentricity and Anderson's, bringing out the best of both authors.
![The Swan](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/t9hq6A/thumb/the-swan_iOTAr7Q.jpeg)
The Swan
Part of a quadrilogy of short films by Wes Anderson, all inspired by texts from Roald Dahl, The Swan might be the most beautiful and poignant of them all. The story, inspired by a small news item the writer read in the newspaper, follows a young boy who suffers severe bullying from two other boys in the neighborhood. With a whimsical tone and a lot of theatrical inspiration, this short film manages to be emotionally touching despite its 17-minute length – after all, being concise, it gets straight to the point. A good example of how Wes Anderson is more than just aesthetics; he's a refined storyteller who knows how to surprise.
![Asteroid City](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/lfnkl2/thumb/asteroid-city_Ru9dl2I.jpeg)
Asteroid City
Asteroid City could be described as the "most Wes Anderson" film of Wes Anderson (Isle of Dogs, The Grand Budapest Hotel), in the sense that the director not only reaffirms his style -with all its artifices- but from the beginning is self-aware of them. The story here is framed as a theatrical work about the remote homonymous village, where a space convention for privileged intellectual youth takes place, where events of existential implications occur. Through an absurd plot and using his typical cast of actors -with some new names like Tom Hanks, Margot Robbie and Maya Hawke- Anderson presents us with situations that make art and science converge in the spiritual experience of not understanding anything, but still searching for purpose. For those who are not avid followers of the director, this movie may not fit their sensibilities. However, fans of the filmmaker and his peculiar style will love it.

![The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar](https://media.filmelier.com/tit/HSeLur/thumb/the-wonderful-story-of-henry-sugar_P7k-F7g.jpeg)
The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar
After "Fantastic Mr. Fox," director Wes Anderson (Asteroid City) once again tackles an adaptation of a Roald Dahl work with "The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar," an exclusive Netflix short film in which the filmmaker pushes all the boundaries of his distinctive style. The result is a brilliant piece that plays with various narrative levels: the story is narrated by Dahl himself (Ralph Fiennes), who tells how the egocentric and eccentric millionaire Henry Sugar (Benedict Cumberbatch) discovers a notebook containing notes from a doctor (Dev Patel) about the experiences of a circus mystic (Ben Kingsley), a man who learned to "see without using his eyes." Wes Anderson's entire idiosyncrasy is taken to its extremes in this short film, so it won't change your mind if you're one of his critics. However, fans will delight in a true treat in which the director shows that the artifice of his cinema is no impediment to reaching profound and moving truths with his stories.
