wes anderson’s trademarks
- Makes obsessive and comedic use of “rostrum camera” insert shots, foregrounding the minutiae of books and other documents.
- Frequently casts Owen Wilson, Luke Wilson, Jason Schwartzman, Andrew Wilson, Bill Murray, Kumar Pallana, Dipak Pallana, Brian Tenenbaum, Stephen Dignan, and Anjelica Huston.
- Likes to shoot with extremely wide-angle anamorphic lenses that exhibit considerable barrel distortion.
- Frequently uses a take/double take technique where he will show a character/action, quickly pan to another character/action, then pan back, usually with handheld camera.
- Movies often focus around a broken or unorthodox family circle
- At least one of his characters is usually a grown man seeking the approval of a parent or parent figure.
- The titlecards are always in the font: Futura Bold, most commonly in yellow color.
- A character giving a complex, lengthy explanation for humor
- Unique ways of introducing a large cast of characters
- Characters who are heavy on body language

i will never ever forget the way that me, maisy, and sonia became the three musCATeers: getting way too stoned and watching fantastic mr. fox.
that is how every friendship should begin

they say all foxes are slightly allergic to linoleum, but it’s cool to the paw - try it. they say my tail needs to be dry cleaned twice a month, but now it’s fully detachable - see? they say our tree may never grow back, but one day, something will. yes, these crackles are made of synthetic goose and these giblets come from artificial squab and even these apples look fake - but at least they’ve got stars on them. i guess my point is, we’ll eat tonight, and we’ll eat together. and even in this not particularly flattering light, you are without a doubt the five and a half most wonderful wild animals i’ve ever met in my life. so let’s raise our boxes - to our survival.
