Reviews

"...a satisfying book that will deepen enjoyment of watching (or rewatching) an Anderson film for any fan."
*New York Journal of Books*

"experiencing the book (one doesn’t quite read it so much as swim in it) is like strolling through the distinctly-colored halls of Anderson’s imagination...an essential addition to the library of anyone who loves film."
*High Brow Magazine*
