Lol when people expect artists to conform to poo poo like that. Enforcing diversity is anti-artistic as gently caress and anderson's movies are all art. This isn't a marvel ticket vehicle.

Please disregard my advice w/r/t history.
Wes Anderson is an easy target but get out of my face if you can't acknowledge that he employs schmaltz to wonderful effect

This is the sort of thing you show to describe good directing.

(Also a testament to how brilliant Anjelica Huston and Gene Hackman are as actors)

I understand your frustration.
The Darjeeling Limited is a loving chore to watch.
