Wes Anderson's style
Raegan 2022-04-20 09:01:15
It can be said that Wes Anderson's films are all about family and growing up. We can see that in his films, the protagonists are often behind some kind of irreparable childhood trauma, and each film almost always shows their inexplicable strange behavior caused by the unsatisfactory family relationship. A line from "Crossing Darjeeling" may explain the source of his enthusiasm: Why'd you expect to get divorced? Maybe it relates to how we were raised. A lot of people agree that the half-hearted, lightly sad style is the style of his stories, and it seems to me that part of the reason is that he tends to set up a character opposite his protagonist at the beginning of the movie, simple In other words, he is an enemy, and this character often becomes a turning point in the second half of his story, reaching a harmonious relationship with the protagonist and becoming a person who helps the protagonist change. It's the classic type of story where your enemies end up protecting you, helping you change, by the way, there's another one where your closest relatives and friends are the heaviest and hurt you the most deepest person.
