A Patreon request! Few filmmakers are as instantly recognizable as Wes Anderson, and The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou may be the moment his style fully took over. Part ocean adventure, part midlife-crisis comedy, part tribute to Jacques Cousteau, the film follows the eccentric Steve Zissou as he sets out to hunt the mysterious shark that killed his best friend. The result was Anderson's biggest box office failure. It's since become a divisive cult classic. Guest Ben Hill is here to discuss.
