About this list:
Just some of the many movies I enjoy. I keep forgetting to tag movies I recommend under this. So, it's not complete by any means.
Bottle Rocket (Criterion Collection) by Wes Anderson
First to recommend
Description
The film that catapulted Wes Anderson's (and Owen Wilson) career as a serious filmmaker. In my opinion, the Criterion release is entirely too late. Better late than never, I guess. Just like other cc releases, it's got lots of extras. What's the kicker though? It's got the original black and white short shot in 1992.

Description
It's a true story, kind of. Essentially this film explores Charlie Kaufman's head when h was commissioned to write a screenplay for "The Orchid Thief." Given, the guy is completely crazy to it's quite a wild ride.

The Darjeeling Limited
4 people recommended this item
Description
"I want us to be completely open and say yes to everything, even if it's shocking and painful." This is just the type of sharp witted dark comedy you can expect from Wes Andesoon and his newest film. Not to mention, it stars Adrian Brody and the second good movie he's ever been in (the first being The Pianist). It also stars Owen Wilson, pre suicide attempt and, the always amazing, Jason Schwartzman.

The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou (The Criterion Collection)
First to recommend
Description
The 4th film by Wes Anderson. I'll be honest, it's certainly not my favorite. However, it might be the most interesting/ ridiculous. Certainly worth checking out and definitely worth owning the criterion collection if you're an Anderson fan.

Rushmore: Wes Anderson (The Criterion Collection)
First to recommend

Description
If you haven't seen this film, stop what you're doing immediately, find the closest Best Buy, purchase it, watch it and have your life transformed. I may sound over dramatic, but I really love this movie and I think you will too. The Criterion Collection features beaucoups of extras. So, get excited.

The awe inspiring story of Philippe Petit, a French hire-wire artist, and his journey to tightrope across the twin towers. Petit, the personification of courage and drive, truly makes you believe you can do anything.
