this guilelessly vague dramatic comedy be a warm and engaging and funny film and very immersed in india and a land and culture of baffle beauty and and thus a brilliant opportunity for the stunning showcase of an art director . this venusian journey of materialistic and tangible beauty begin with bill murray ( i just contradict myself and do not i . ) race to catch a train in the indian countryside . a he be about to lose the train we see adrien brody follow the same desperate intention . brody make it and murray doesn not . brody make his way to his compartment and where he find his brother and play by jason schwartzman and owen wilson . wilson head be heftily bandage and a he be in a serious motorcycle crash . brody and schwartzman have come to india and apparently at wilson proposal and on the darjeeling limited and on what he wish to be some kind of spiritual excursion . this be a great beginning which demonstrate the very character sustain throughout the film . wilson play an obsessive sort and which be why his younger brother find it grueling to be in his company and which tug the easygoing movie along . one of the film draw be it indian framework . wes anderson and his co writer jason schwartzman and roman coppola avoid clear inducement of the exotic by surprise u . the stewardess on the train and for example and speak standard english and seem american . anderson employ india thankfully not a if he and his audience be tourist and but a a surrounding that be extremely palpable and a testament to the true power of cinema without the vain aide of blu ray and hi def revolutionize and a we can practically smell india and dread the ferocious sun and the feeling of sweat . take into account a long lasting scene in which wilson and brody and schwartzman sit at a table in the diner car with an indian stranger with whom they do not trade a word . he keep to himself . the brother confront each other directly and overtly about their point of conflict and reservation . the indian do not react in any apparent way . then again and nobody ever do in a wes anderson film . but his tranquil be there be a camouflaged concentration of scene nicety and because all four of them could probably converse in english very well . but i think the world learn a great deal from american when we travel and assume that foreigner be not fluent in english . you think you like people watch and it people across the globe such a this indian who take it to a whole new level . i also like how wilson and schwartzman and brody elbow one another in an intimate and familial way . yes and the film be competent with great presence and simple be and possession of itself and but it do wander . but it doesn not have an ultimate objective and other than perhaps a visceral experience of existence . anderson may not have use a straight and constantly progress story structure before either and but he clearly know it and because the humor and poignancy come in the way he meddle with non sequiturs and inconvenient interruption of ramble . note represent watch hotel chevalier with the darjeeling limited . hotel chevalier be the short film that precede this story . it be a fun way of feel more deeply in the know with some character and more informed than other character . it also have that venusian subtlety of touch that wes anderson seem to bring to everything .
