It is essentially a completed version of Orson Welles' "The Magnificent Ambersons." The nuance, hilarity, and emotional truthfulness at work here makes "The Royal Tenenbaums" easily Anderson's best work to date, and one of my favorite films of all-time.

I have to wonder what film got the academy award for best set design that year? I know there is a lot of discussion about Wes doing his thing too much, but when you look at most films where a teenagers room they just throw up a few posters on the wall (ala Michael Bay) I would still much prefer a film where the director has a unique vision, even if he gets derailed by it from time to time.

And it was because of this film that I fell in love with writing. And due to this films exsistence I came to appreciate cinema on another level. All that shit aside this is one of only 10 films I can watch 5 times in one week. Trust me I know. I ended up catching rushmore after I saw this and have a hard time placing one as better as the other. Top pick boys.
