We go way back, Wes Anderson and us – all the way back, in fact, to the very beginning. In 2005 The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou graced the cover of our very first issue, and two years after that the writer/director’s follow-up feature, The Darjeeling Limited, followed suit. Now, a decade and some 60 issues later, we’re extra excited to pay tribute to Anderson’s newest effort, Isle of Dogs.
