526. Ander’s Sons: The Darjeeling Limited

Small Beans

It’s a Wes month. This time we discuss his 2007 film The Darjeeling Limited which tells the story of three brothers embarking on a spiritual journey through their mutual and personal grief. The boys talk about why it feels different from other Anderson films, how grief and romance are treated in Anderson films, and how the writing reveals a genuine desire to interact with Indian culture but ultimately discloses a form of privilege from the writer/director.
