The ruffian's father didn't think of his family until he spent every cent on his body. The behavior of walking home without any support is an instinct, and it is engraved in everyone's DNA.
All the people in this family have problems big and small, they are geniuses, and they make a mess of their own lives. After Richie committed suicide, this absurd home had a little breakthrough.
My favorite is the long shot of everyone sitting on the fire truck at the end of the movie.
Like the old ruffian and richie said, "I really want to tell you what to do, but I don't know." This is the difficulty of life.
The geniuses finally embraced life, and I love wes anderson's grotesque stories, and how he sees ordinary and nuanced stories in his rich, warm tones.
