To me, it still had that sense of Wes Anderson weirdness but also delved into some darker themes, as well, especially at the end. It had serious depth and didn't let you forget it. Ralph Fiennes was incredible!<br /><br />Cheers,<br />JennyJennifer Raineyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00018185285968107128noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4374594538719761301.post-18782467576512880662014-09-01T06:57:22.226-04:002014-09-01T06:57:22.226-04:00I finally saw this film last month and I adored it...I finally saw this film last month and I adored it! Wes Anderson is one of my favourite directors, so I knew I was in for a treat, but it was even better than I expected. I thought Ralph Fiennes gave a superb performance - what a character! The humour, the styling, the sets, the dialogue...I loved all of it! :)Incendiary Blondehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09528321687210279974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4374594538719761301.post-90745679993484204992014-09-01T02:49:22.272-04:002014-09-01T02:49:22.272-04:00I have and I thoroughly enjoyed it, even if it was...I have and I thoroughly enjoyed it, even if it was quite a departure from the usual types of films I tend to fancy. The historical context and massive whimsy - not mention the amazing cast - drew me and I'm very glad we saw it. My only real qualm was with the ending, or more specially what happened to one of the key characters (I shalln't say more, in case anyone reading hasn't seen it), but even then, in the bigger picture of the movie, the ending did work and didn't feel entirely like a slap in the face, as I find some movie ends tend to (when they're not "happily ever after" sorts). <br /><br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.com
