It reaches the same depth of <i>Rushmore<\/i>, but instead of staying in the same Chicago suburb, the director takes us on a wonderful road trip to India. Unlike <i>Life Aquatic<\/i>, which also wanted to be an adventure film, <i>The Darjeling Limited<\/i> is never boring because even when the pace of film slows down, we learn to know more interesting bist about the characters. Three brothers have not seen each other for over a year after their father&#8217;s funeral. Their mother never had much of a motherly instinct and apparently spent much of her maternal career running away from the family. The oldest son, who just was in a teribble car accident, wants to recreate at least the strong bonds between brothers by going on a joint trip spirtiual trip. I know a number of people who went to India to fix their spirits, but returned unhealed. Will the brothers suffer the same fate? Go watch this film to find out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is Wes Anderson&#8217;s best film to date.
