(R) USA – 1 hr 58 min
2004 · d. Wes Anderson
Starring Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Anjelica Huston, Cate Blanchett, Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum
Reunited with his illegitimate son (Owen Wilson), a washed-up oceanographer (Bill Murray) sets out to find and slay the possibly non-existent jaguar shark that ate his best friend. This star-studded maritime odyssey may be Anderson’s most idiosyncratic and imaginative work—and, with an ending that will melt the coldest heart, his most moving.
Critic/author Matt Zoller Seitz will join us after the show to discuss his book The Wes Anderson Collection, for sale on-site.
The feature will be preceded by a special era-appropriate preshow.
