Creator Blog #11 - Wes Anderson
🕑 Added 2022-09-15 14:01:01 +0000 UTCWest Anderson is an idol. You don’t even have to see the credits to know if a film was produced by him. His fingerprints just stand out in the set production, color grading, and dry humor.
I’m mentioning Wes Anderson because I pick up a lot of inspiration from his work. Whenever I’m stuck, sometimes I just turn on one of his movies to get some ideas flowing. Inspiration comes from storytelling, scene composition, humor, or even just a slight artistic interpretation of an idea.
I was going to leave a list of my favorites from him, but honestly I love them all. But I would probably put “The Grand Budapest Hotel” at the very top of the list. Although, he’s still making movies so the reigning favorite can still be overthrown.

Though a different fingerprint, I could said the same about Joel and Ethan Cohen's movies. Too many favorites of theirs, but I particularly like The Hudsucker Proxy.
So agree with you. Wes just has a way of weaving a story that is so interesting and unique to him. Moonlight Kingdom is currently my favorite.
