This is just my comment when I am sad

Most of Anderson's films describe children who grow up in tragic families.
A child who is not grown up in love will become a person who does not love others. He would have become apathetic, paranoid, and unstable person.
And a family composed of such people is destined to become a tragedy. Has been going on.

And Anderson is obviously very clear about this. So the children with weird characters in his films often have at least one irresponsible parent, or a parent with weird behavior. Fortunately, every child in his film is not alone. Because at least they have their own brothers and sisters.
The father in this film is a man who has been separated from his wife and children for more than 20 years and has no consciousness of being a father.
Yuesheng Kingdom was seen a year ago. The girl has an affair mother, and the boy, I forgot, it seems to be an orphan.
There is also a movie called Crossing. The mother of the three sons disappeared completely after disappearing repeatedly and became a nun in the remote Himalayas.
Yes, these lonely children all have a good family background and good achievements. So these make the tragedy that happened to them less obvious.
Suicide, Suicide, Suicide, Suspicion, Paranoia, Genius, Indifferent, but vulnerable.

At the end of each film.
The tragic nature of these children seems to have been changed through some efforts.
But this is nothing more than the director's yearning for beauty.
Because I don’t believe that people who grow up in a soil that lacks love since childhood will know how to truly love others.
