hollies65 Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 With Luke and Owen Wilson.They wrote and directed it...at least a decade ago. Best Movie either guy has ever been in. Highly Recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnO Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 Hollies - Actually, "Bottle Rocket" was the first movie directed by Wes Anderson, a good friend of the Wilsons (he went to college with Owen, I believe)....he's also used one or both of them in his later films - "Rushmore", "The Royal Tenenbaums", "Aquatic Life With Steve Zissou", and "The Darjeeling Limited". Luke and/or Owen also co-produced a couple of those flicks, and co-wrote most of them.P.S. "Bottle Rocket" is still my favorite Wes A. film.....

Tony Cartmill Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 I used to work with a guy at Guitar Center who says he paled around with the Owens and swears some of the "BR" plot was based on their antics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
