rating. 15
Wes Anderson first illustrated his lovingly detailed, slightly surreal cinematic vision (with cowriter Owen Wilson) in this visually witty and warm portrait of three young misfits. Best friends Anthony (Luke Wilson), Dignan (Owen Wilson), and Bob (Robert Musgrave) stage a wildly complex, mildly successful robbery of a small bookstore, then go “on the lam.” During their adventures, Anthony falls in love with a South American housekeeper, Inez (Lumi Cavazos), and they befriend local thief extraordinaire Mr. Henry (James Caan). Bottle Rocket is a charming, hilarious, affectionate look at the folly of dreamers, shot against radiant southwestern backdrops, and the film that put Anderson and the Wilson brothers on the map. - Criterion Collection Film Bio
The feature film BOTTLE ROCKET will be preceded by the short film of the same name, made in 1994.
About Our Season - “Wes Days”
Deptford Cinema is proud to present a year-long season celebrating the work of auteur filmmaker Wes Anderson - called Wes Days. With his incomparable aesthetic vision and offbeat sense of humour, Anderson is one of cinema's quirkiest filmmakers. Known for his witty dialogue and exquisitely decorated sets, he first received attention for his 1998 film Rushmore and his 2001 film The Royal Tenenbaums. He then went on to garner wider audiences for such films as The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (2004), The Darjeeling Limited (2007), and The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014).
Preceding most films in the season will be either a short film or commercial directed by Wes Anderson.
