We finally saw the latest Wes Anderson flick, Fantastic Mr. Fox. The story and production were superb. I’m looking forward to the next chance to catch it on the big screen. Having watched a few behind the scenes videos, I’m noticing missed details. Much of the film reminded me of Royal Tenenbaums, which seemed to be the most mature of his films up to that point with the added benefit of puppets. Now I’ll need to do the right thing and read Roald Dahl’s book.

Another behind the scene’s look including scene’s of Roald Dahl’s home, where much of the screenplay was written by Anderson.

Check out the behind the scenes book by Pentagram.
