PART OF A LINCOLN FILM SERIES: GO WES YOUNG MAN

Join us Tuesdays in June and July for our new film series: GO WES YOUNG MAN: THE FIRST FOUR FILMS OF WES ANDERSON.
In the first ten years of his career, filmmaker Wes Anderson solidified himself as an exciting new voice in Hollywood. These early films are fascinating to watch now, as we can see his nascent sensibilities come into focus very quickly over the course of them -- a little more rough and ragged than his later work, yet many of his winsome tendencies are on full display from frame one. Join us on this journey through a decade of daring work!
June 17: Bottle Rocket
Wes Anderson first illustrated his lovingly detailed, slightly surreal cinematic vision (with co-writer Owen Wilson) in this visually witty and warm portrait of three young misfits.
Best friends Anthony (Luke Wilson), Dignan (Owen Wilson), and Bob (Robert Musgrave) stage a wildly complex, mildly successful robbery of a small bookstore, then go "on the lam." During their adventures, Anthony falls in love with a South American housekeeper, Inez (Lumi Cavazos), and they befriend local thief extraordinaire Mr. Henry (James Caan).
Bottle Rocket is a charming, hilarious, affectionate look at the folly of dreamers, shot against radiant southwestern backdrops, and the film that put Anderson and the Wilson brothers on the map.
