The Royal Tenenbaums - The Criterion Collection

Royal Tenenbaum (Unforgiven's GENE HACKMAN) and his wife, Etheline (Prizzi's Honor's ANJELICA HUSTON) had three children-Chas, Margot, and Richie-and then they separated. Chas (Meet the Parents' BEN STILLER) started buying real estate in his early teens and seemed to have an almost preternatural understanding of international finance. Margot (Shakespeare in Love's GWYNETH PALTROW) was a playwright and received a Braverman Grant of $50,000 in the ninth grade. Richie (Rushmore's 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 from WES ANDERSON (The Darjeeling Limited).DIRECTOR-APPROVED SPECIAL EDITION FEATURES:Restored high-definition digital transfer, supervised by director Wes Anderson, with 5.1 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrackAudio commentary by Wes AndersonWith the Filmmaker: Portraits by Albert Maysles, featuring Wes AndersonInterviews with and behind-the-scenes footage of actors Gene Hackman, Anjelica Huston, Ben Stiller, Gwyneth Paltrow, Luke Wilson, Owen Wilson, Bill Murray, and Danny GloverOuttakesThe Peter Bradley Show, featuring interviews with additional cast membersScrapbook featuring young Richie's murals and paintings, still photographs by set photographerJames Hamilton, book and magazine covers, and storyboardsStudio 360 radio segment on painter Miguel Calderón, along with examples of his workTrailersInsert with Eric Anderson's drawings of the Tenenbaum housePLUS: An essay by film critic Kent JonesClick Images to Enlarge
