- Quotes
Roald Dahl: Some people, when they have taken too much and have been driven beyond the point of endurance, simply crumble and collapse and give up. Others however, though they are not many, who will for some reason always be unconquerable. You meet them in time of war and also in time of peace. They have an indomitable spirit. And nothing, neither pain, nor torture, nor threat of death will cause them to give up. Little Peter Watson was one of these.

A small brilliant boy is tormented by two large idiotic bullies.
First of all, I almost forgot it was a short movie until it finished !
I was fully involved in this magical story and the way it was presented that I'd call it lazy for not capturing what's happening and instead telling what's happening through beautiful frames.
It may look lazy but I know it must be even harder to make such as a thing, especially nowadays when you simply can make it normal, Wes Anderson is beyond that.
The production design was stunning as always and I enjoyed every minute of it, I need more of these colorful narratives by Wes.
