THE DARJEELING LIMITED Closes 51st London Film FestivalThursday, November 1---------Hopping from its World Premiere at the Venice Film Festival to its Opening Night Gala last month at the New York Film Festival, the Wes Anderson film THE DARJEELING LIMITED closes the Times BFI 51st London Film Festival tonight. The film will open theatrically in the UK on November 23rd via distributor Twentienth Century Fox. THE DARJEELING LIMITED presents the fractured fable of three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year, who set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other . Their "spiritual quest", however, veers rapidly off-course and they eventually find themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert. From that moment on, a new and unplanned journey begins.
The director Wes Anderson, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Roman Coppola and Jason Schwarzman, is one of Hollywood's most idiosyncratic young filmmakers. He has had a longstanding relationship with both Owen and Luke Wilson, having co-written the films BOTTLE ROCKET (1996, his directorial debut), RUSHMORE (1998) and THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS (2001) with the brother acting duo. Anderson also produced, wrote and directed THE LIFE AQUATIC WITH STEVE ZISSOU, which also starred Owen Wilson, in an eclectic cast that included Bill Murray, Anjelica Huston, Willem Dafoe and Cate Blanchett. In 2005, he also produced the acclaimed domestic drama THE SQUID AND THE WHALE, starring Jeff Daniels and Laura Linney. He is currently in production on THE FANTASTIC MR. FOX, an animated comedy featuring the voices of George Clooney, Bill Murray, Cate Blanchett, Jason Schwarzman and Anjelica Houston, which Twentienth Century Fox will release next year.
