Epistolary adoration
Dear Wes Anderson,
How is it that you got to be so cool and so talented? I mean, some people make good movies but don’t know a Pony from a Puma. And some people have awesome western shirts and aviator glasses, but their movies are boring and don’t have Bill Murray in them. And some of them don’t even make movies at all, which makes them losers. Anyway, how did it happen? Did some crazy-hip Talent Fairy crash your christening and knock over the old-lady fairies in the matching dresses? Did you drink from the well of Talent Milk and Cool Honey?
I can’t wait to see your new movie The Darjeeling Limited. Me and my friends bought our tickets as soon as the theater downtown had them. You should have heard the guy at the theater, all, “The Darjeeling what? I’ve never heard of it.” So of course we had to tell him all about it. Maybe you should give us some of the money you make for spreading the word about your movie, LOL. Anyway, we have our tickets but we’re going to be there really early anyway. I’m going to wear my Jason Schwartzman Rules t-shirt that I made with one of those iron-on decals and a picture I printed off IMDB. Did I tell you that I really love Jason Schwartzman? Because I do. He’s so TRUE, you know? He reminds me of, like, every guy I know, only more so. I think you’re such a genius for casting him in all your movies except The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. Which, by the way, I thought was a great movie. You’re such a great team. Maybe you make each other cooler and more talented, you know? It’s like a symbiotic relationship, or something.
Anyway. I hope TDL does really, really well in the theater, and if you want to send me some of that cash, go ahead! Just text me, I swear. LOL!
You’re my hero,
A Fan
