I want to look inside your head

Wes Anderson makes me happy. I'm very excited for the release his new movie "The Darjeeling Limited". And, in the meantime, I watched (free on itunes!) the short film, Hotel Chevalier, which is noted as part 1 of The Darjeeling Limited. His ability to develop characters by using minimal words and gestures delights me. His use of color makes my eyes smile.

But, besides my adoration for him as a filmmaker, I'm excited by his knack for drawing well-deserved attention to lesser-known artists whose talents escaped the mainstream.

For example: Peter Sarstedt, "Where Do You Go To (My Lovely)"


God Bless you Mr. Anderson.
