The Darjeeling Limited

In The Darjeeling Limited, three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to “find themselves, bond with each other, and become brothers again”; unfortunately, their spiritual quest quickly turns into a chaotic bender, and they end up stranded alone in the middle of the desert with eleven suitcases, a printer, and a laminating machineat which point a new, unplanned journey suddenly begins. Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, and Jason Schwartzman star in this film about their adventure and their friendship.

In preparation for the premiere of The Phoenician Scheme on June 6, the JBFC presents Wes Anderson Abroad. Between May 31 and June 5, revisit a selection of Anderson’s internationally focused films, including The Darjeeling Limited, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, The Grand Budapest Hoteland The French Dispatch.

"Nobody makes films the way [Anderson] does. And once you settle into the whimsical, meandering groove of this Healing Comedy—like something you'd find on a booze soaked, juvenile men's version of Lifetime—you'll find it hilarious and a little magical... his oddball odyssey stuck with me well after the final long, hypnotic shot of the magic train rolling through the Indian landscape."
Mark Rahner, Seattle Times

This film is part of the Wes Anderson Abroad series.
