I wouldn't say that I'm particularly bothered or obsessed with detail.
Wes Anderson
Image
I guess when I think about it, one of the things I like to dramatise, and what is sometimes funny, is someone coming unglued. I don't consider myself someone who is making the argument that I support these choices. I just think it can be funny.

Image
I usually set aside a lot of time in advance of a movie with important roles for kids to search, but when you have great ones, they can be a real ace in the hole.
Wes Anderson
Image
Animating is a very slow, pain-staking process and the animators become the actors at that point.

Working with kids is usually very fun. They get so into movie and they're up for anything. Usually they're having such an exciting experience, everybody feels that.
Wes Anderson
Image
Kids are always open to anything. It's very rare that a kid isn't extremely eager to make you happy.

Some of the ideas are kind of inspired by the songs, and I always want to use music to tell the story and give the movie a certain kind of mood. That's always essential to me.

Wes Anderson
Image
I love working with actors. That's what the set really is, for me. It's my time with the actors.
Wes Anderson
Image
With each movie I have a different set of inspirations.
Wes Anderson
Image
India is a place where one of the great pleasures for a foreigner is that you're constantly surprised. Everywhere you look is something that is either funny, or very moving, but there is always so much that is so unexpected.
Wes Anderson
Image
The things that are more my own style are something that I don't really have to think about. The only time I have to think about them is if I want to force myself not to do it the way I do it.
Wes Anderson
Image
The subject of an outsider who becomes obsessed.
Wes Anderson
Image
Paris is a place where, for me, just walking down a street that I've never been down before is like going to a movie.
Wes Anderson
Image
I have always wanted to work in the theater. I've always felt the glamour of being backstage and that excitement, but I've never actually done it - not since I was in 5th grade, really. But I've had many plays in my films. I feel like maybe theater is a part of my movie work.
Wes Anderson
Image
I've never had a movie that got great reviews. I've had movies that got different levels of good and bad reviews, but you can more or less count on plenty of bad reviews.
Wes Anderson
Image
Sometimes if the people are up for trying something that I'm interested in, it can be a great experience.
Wes Anderson
Image
Anytime I make a movie, I really have absolutely no idea how it's going to go over. I've had the whole range of different kinds of reactions.
