Hey guys,
If you're a fan of Wes Anderson's style you should definitely check out the movies by
Alex van Warmerdam
They are similar in that, from what I've seen, they both tend to make movies about eccentric people in odd/stylistic surroundings. And they both have a quirky sense of humor.
I would definitely recommend
Abel (1986)
(Voyeur) and
De Noorderlingen (1992)
(The Northerners)
Borgman (2013)
is a bit more well known, and though I thought it was decent I did think it was a stylistic departure from those other two. And I didn't like it as much.
I haven't seen van Warmerdam's other movies yet, though I'm really looking forward to it and watching
De jurk (1996)
(The Dress) tonight.
I'm a pretty big fan of him and thought I should take this opportunity to shine a light on his movies and share them with people that I think would enjoy them as well.
Zardoz (1974)
has spoken!
