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.

And I always appreciate it when the beans delve into conversations like the discussion of how ambition, happiness, depression can weave together because I'm a tourist listening to y'all, thinking "Yeah, I relate". I don't think cycles of depression are any more of a waste of time that taking a shit. For some of us, it's just part of the deal that can improved through diet but sometimes you're just going to have to sit there for a minute.

and FURTHERMORE, it was sweet to hear Michael mention that Abe's enthusiasm for film has inspired him. I (as a tourist) feel the same, not as much for film, but for story telling.
