157 - The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)

We’re joined this week by Richard and AJ of the Cult Popture podcast to try to wrap our heads around all things Wes Anderson: symmetrical framing, meticulous production design, quirky soundtracks, the inevitable backlash, and the even more inevitable enduring love (some of us have) of his films.  And what better way to start this with the Gene Hackman-led ensemble that is The Royal Tenenbaums.

If you’d like to watch ahead for next week’s film, we will be discussing and reviewing Nagisa Ōshima’sThe Realm of the Senses (1976).
