The Darjeeling Limited

Wes Anderson, one of my favorite writer/director’s has another doosy hitting our local silver screen plaza’s next week. Some of the old Rushmore cast is back (Owen Wilson, Jason Shwartzman, Bill Murray, Angelica Houston and Kumar Pallana) for what the Internet Movie Database explains as:

“Three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other — to become brothers again like they used to be. Their “spiritual quest”, however, veers rapidly off-course (due to events involving over-the-counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray), and they eventually find themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert with eleven suitcases, a printer, and a laminating machine. At this moment, a new, unplanned journey suddenly begins.”

Word on the street is that Owen W. has his wrists “bandaged” in the movie because his character tried to commit suicide. Weird.

Enjoy the trailer. You may be asking–what the eff does this have to do with San Francisco? Actually, it has nothing to do with our fine city. However, to tie everything together, there are some SF movie theaters listed below.
