Love Wes Anderson
Love Wes Anderson, and this is a good depth into his life and work. Except for the prefaces and intros and stuff, the text is mainly an interview with Anderson rather than actual essay style description. Loads of great pictures and insights.

Super cool book for any Wes Anderson fan!
Super cool book for all Wes Anderson fans, with in-depth details, interviews and behind-the-scenes images of all his films (excludes The Grand Budapest Hotel, however). Got this for my sister who is a Wes Anderson nut, and she was absolutely thrilled. It's a nice big, thick book too, lots to read! Was a little surprised that it didn't come with a dustcover however, and it had a small dent, however, this did not affect the book too much.

Für den Filmliebhaber mit dem Fokus auf Originalität und Liebe zum Detail ist Wes Anderson schon seit Jahren kein Geheimtipp mehr. Als Meister des modernen Ausstattungsfilms ist er mittlerweile auch dem Mainstream bekannt und das völlig zu Recht. Mit seinen nur sechs Spielfilmen hat sich Wes Anderson als eine der wichtigsten Kreativkräfte der weltweiten Filmkunst etabliert. Die Mischung von grell-absurder Komik und leiser Melancholie, samt quijotesquen Figuren macht seine Filme in der gegenwärtigen Komödienlandschaft und darüber hinaus unverwechselbar. Wie seine Figuren scheint sich Anderson immer mehr von der Realität abkapseln zu wollen, um in seine ganz eigenen Parallelwelten einzutauchen. Auch wenn Andersons jeweilige Filme dabei nicht immer auf einem gleich hohen künstlerischen Niveau anzusiedeln sind, zeichnet sich ein jeder unter ihnen doch durch ganz eigene Ansätze und Variationen aus, die eine gesonderte Betrachtung verdienen. Mit diesem wirklich sehr, sehr umfassenden (bis ins letzte Detail aufgelistetem) und beeindruckenden Werk bekommt man eine sehr gute Übersicht über die wichtigsten Werke von W. Anderson! --> Nur zum empfehlen - nicht nur für Fans der skurrilen und surrealistischen Welt des Wes Anderson. Es ist wohl das mit Abstand wichtigste und umfangreichste Werk über die Wes Anderson Filmwelt. Leider gibts dieses Buch nur in englischer Sprache, ist aber nur ein kleiner Wehrmutstropfen.

Ksiażka świetna ale zabezpieczenie przesyłki przez sklep Amazon woła o pomstę do nieba. Książka wrzucona do słabej tekturki przez co już po raz kolejny zakupiona ksiązka u Amazona przyszła uszkodzona. Szczególnie mocno uszkodzone zawsze przychodza rogi. Są poobijane i pozaginane - co w przypadku takiego albumu robi fatalne wrażenie. Amazonie czy nie "stać" Cię na lepsze zabezpieczanie wysyłanych paczek? 😠

I’m a HUGE Wes Anderson fan and have reveled in his entire oeuvre – including commercials. So it was a “no-brainer” for me to purchase this lovely and luscious book, “The Wes Anderson Collection” by Matt Zoller Seitz. Seitz says this book is for “detail-obsessed fetishists” and I guess that describes me! When it arrived I flipped quickly through it looking at the pictures. It’s a scrap-book of sorts for Wes’ seven films: “Bottle Rocket” through “Moonrise Kingdom” (a new film, “The Grand Budapest Hotel”, comes out in 2014). I was thrilled with all the pictures and colorful illustrations because what most of us Wes Anderson fans love about his work is the way his movies LOOK. Part of his style is his incredible attention to detail – every single prop or costume is meticulously chosen. Then I sat down to READ the book because it contains a long conversation between Seitz and Anderson about his films starting with “Bottle Rocket”. Well, I just totally “GEEKED OUT” and realized that I need to re-watch each movie and then read the corresponding interview and look at the photos and story-boards and frame shots. So that’s what I’m doing. Wes Anderson’s films are imminently re-watchable and this book just ups the ante for enjoyment and “insider” information. I highly recommend this book (and it’s a BARGAIN for a coffee table quality book!) to Anderson fans or anyone who revels in reading about great writer/directors. Everything about his work is unique: the look, the sound (don’t even get me started on his wonderful soundtracks!), the HUMOR, the pace, the tone, the pathos…well, you get my drift: I love this book ALMOST as much as I love Wes Anderson’s films.
