The Royal Tenenbaums is a hilarious, touching, and brilliantly stylised study of melancholy and redemption from Wes Anderson. Including all star cast Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Gwyneth Paltrow, Luke Wilson, Ben Stiller and Bill Murray.

Royal Tenenbaum (Hackman) and his wife Etheline (Huston) had three children - Chas (Stiller), Richie (Wilson) and Margot (Paltrow) - and then they separated. Chas started buying real estate in his early teens and had an almost preternatural understanding of international finance. Margot was a playwright and received a grant of fifty thousand dollars in the ninth grade. Richie 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. This is the story of their unexpected reunion one winter.

QFT take a stylised and symmetrical look back at some of the work of Wes Anderson, in anticipation of Asteroid City, released at the end of June.
