The Darjeeling Limited (2007)
Wes Anderson comedy-drama (perhaps a little heaver on the drama then is typical for him) concerns three brothers (played by Adrien Brody, Jason Schwartzman, and Owen Wilson (I can maybe buy the first too as brothers, but when you throw in Owen Wilson) on a train journey across Indiana in search of spiritual enlighten, reconnecting with each other, and finding their eccentric mother. A few things in this movie paralleled with my real life enough to resonate with me, including surviving bad automobile accident (I did this in 2010) and dealing with the recent death of ones father (mine died in October). The film is Wes Andersonie as expected, but still has a few reasonably effecting moments of pathos, especially the flash back of to traveling to the fathers funeral. Film also features a blink and you'll miss it silent Natalie Portman cameo. ***
