Whimsical family character study written by Anderson, Roman Coppola and Jason Schwartzman and populated by the latter, Owen Wilson and Adrien Brody, with Amara Karan, Waris Ahluwalia (snake loving guard), Wallace Wolodarsky, Anjelica Huston and Bill Murray.
Richly photographed as always by Robert Yeoman.
Episode involving drowning of village boy is the unexpected depth at the centre of the film.
You can't help smiling throughout a Wes Anderson film. Also most interestingly shot and staged e.g. succession of bizarre railway carriage compartments at the end.
