What The Reviewers Say
While Nayman clearly reveres one of the most acclaimed and mythologized of contemporary American filmmakers, he’s willing to take the piss out of his subject, sveltely moving between Anderson’s strengths, limitations, and the obsessions that bind them, fashioning an ornate and suggestive system of checks and balances.
... a necessary companion to the films and also a study of great detail and devotion that stands on its own, made not only for Anderson devotees but for anyone interested in learning how to gracefully approach an artist’s body of work.
A deep, gorgeous dive into the acclaimed director’s films.
