    CinePhils, Take 27: Wes Anderson’s Grand Budapest Hotel and The Life Aquatic, or “Viewmaster”

    Actually it is take 27, we’ve been away for too long. Nostalgia, simplicity, yearning, and a bit of humanity is the cure for cynicism. Also, well constructed cinematic, symmetrical camera work and such.

    CinePhils, Take 23: Alex Cox’s Walker and Highway Patrolman, or “¿por qué hablamos tanto tiempo?”
