In 2023, after being disappointed by ASTEROID CITY, I wrote this post wherein I ranked Andersons’ films.
Last night we saw THE PHOENICIAN SCHEME, which is a reasonable time to publish an amended list; n.b. the only edit is the insertion of the new film between Dogs and Rocket:
- Moonrise Kingdom (2012)
- Rushmore (1998)
- The French Dispatch (2021)
- The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)
- Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009)
- Isle of Dogs (2018)
- The Phoenician Scheme (2025)
- Bottle Rocket (1996)
- Grand Budapest Hotel (2014)
- The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (2004)
- Asteroid City (2023)
- The Darjeeling Limited (2007)
Mostly, the last two outings have just made me want to watch other films of his again (e.g., anything in the top half of the list).
