This week we took some time to revisit The Royal Tenenbaums, a film neither of us had seen in about twenty years, but which falls very clearly into this season's theme of films about family with lots and lots of genre troubles. We chatted about Wes Anderson's career, the politics of his aesthetics, and also what we didn't notice about this film in our late teens.
Spoilers: hot pink, hot goss on Gene Hackman, the hipsterdom of hating other hipsters, needle dropping, castration anxiety, Richie's suicide scene should be edited out George Lucas style, CD players with skip protection.
