The Wes Anderson Collection

Matt Zoller Seitz — film critic, television writer, and one of the most thoughtful essayists working in contemporary film culture — spent years interviewing Wes Anderson and the people who make his films, and the result is the most comprehensive and most intelligent account of his work available. This first volume covers everything from Bottle Rocket through Moonrise Kingdom, with detailed analysis of each film, production photographs and sketches, and the interviews that reveal how Anderson thinks about the cinema he makes.

Essential for any Anderson devotee — and one of the finest filmmaker monographs published in recent years, a model of how to write about visual art with both analytical rigour and genuine enthusiasm. Published by Abrams.
