The Cinematic Odyssey

On the eighth episode of The Cinematic Odyssey, Tristen and Max venture through the bland acting choices, colorful scenic design, and what it means to care about one's family as they discuss Wes Anderson's funny family drama The Royal Tenenbaums. Discussing the symmetry of Anderson's shots and how the audience may find themselves self-aware, rather than projecting values onto emotional characters. There are plenty of laughs to be had even as they examine a destroyed family unit with one father's gutsy and morally flawed decision to try and save his relationship with each of them.

What is The Cinematic Odyssey?

On The Cinematic Odyssey podcast, your hosts and amateur film lovers Max Clark and Tristen Rodriguez take their film exploration beyond the blockbusters and through the art house sphere. We typically discuss the impact the film has had on us and the film world, memorable shots and the meaning behind certain narrative choices, and the design of the work from camera angles to costuming. With our own signature brand of humor and curiosity, follow our journeys and maybe take some recommendations home as we try to expand the mainstream recognition of great film.
