#5. Bottle Rocket. Before he found his place. Pre-hyper-real stuff (most at least). Its fun and the Wilsons are great but I just don't get very much out of this film.
#4. Darjeeling Limited/Hotel Chevalier. Great movie. Very beautifully shot. Some wonderful moments and a really great story about brotherness and touches on family some.
#3 The Royal Tenenbaums. Here is where the wonderful factor starts to go off the scale. A ton of archetypal characters that you really never see. I guess that is Wes' thing but man he does it well. A really good story about family. Everyone does such a good job in their roles. Gotta love the book cover screens.
#2 Rushmore. Cannot describe how wonderful this film is. I love Murray and Schwartzman so much in it. This one is usually considered Anderson's best. Very well shot, great soundtrack. Fantastic story and some really really great moments/lines.
#1 The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou. In my top five movies of all time. Most people put this toward the bottom of the list rather than at the very top. I really can't figure out why. Phenomenal subject material. Great characters. Great soundtrack. Bill Murray is legend. Really is summed up by a line from Rushmore- "Sic Transit Gloria."
