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!
July 1: The Royal Tenenbaums
Royal Tenenbaum (Gene Hackman) and his wife, Etheline (Anjelica Huston), had three children -- Chas, Margot, and Richie -- and then they separated. Chas (Ben Stiller) started buying real estate in his early teens and seemed to have an almost preternatural understanding of international finance. Margot (Gwyneth Paltrow) was a playwright and received a Braverman Grant of $50,000 in the ninth grade. Richie (Luke Wilson) was a junior champion tennis player and won the U.S. Nationals three years in a row.
Virtually all memory of the brilliance of the young Tenenbaums was subsequently erased by two decades of betrayal, failure, and disaster.
The Royal Tenenbaums is a hilarious, touching, and brilliantly stylized study of melancholy and redemption.
Directed by Wes Anderson
