BOOK CLUB


THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL, 2014
Wes Anderson made pink the colour of the
moment way before millennial pink was a thing.
This scene with Tony Revolori and Saoirse Ronan
is every hipster’s dream Instagram aesthetic.

THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS, 2001
The dead-straight bob, kohl eyeliner and blank
stare made Gwyneth Paltrow’s look in The
Royal Tenenbaums instantly iconic.
Not to mention the hair clip...

Watching a Wes
Anderson film is a lot
like stepping into
a choose-your-own-
adventure colouring
book. His latest release,
an animation called Isle
of Dogs about talking
dogs living on Trash
Island, is no exception.
Here’s a look back
at Anderson’s
most aesthetically
pleasing films...

THE DARJEELING LIMITED, 2007
The Darjeeling Limited follows three estranged
brothers on a soul-searching, mishap-ridden
train trip through India – a story perfectly
captured in this scene with Jason Schwartzman,
Owen Wilson and Adrien Brody.

HOTEL CHEVALIER, 2007
This 13-minute short film is basically an ode to the
colour yellow. Natalie Portman wearing a yellow
bathrobe in a yellow bed with a yellow blanket
in a yellow room with a Bloody Mary on the
bedside table is pure gold. (Yellow gold.)
