Considering one can deduce if a work is from Wes Anderson from a single frame, it has resulted in endless parodies of the director, but with a bit of a budget, Saturday Night Live debuted a strikingly faithful one this past weekend. Narrated by Alec Baldwin and starring Edward Norton (as his co-star of The Grand Budapest Hotel, Owen Wilson), The Midnight Coterie of Sinister Intruders has now arrived online.
Featuring his trademark, colorful production design, particular camera movements, font styles and more, it’s a fairly impressive reference-filled nod to the director. One can check it out below in full as we await his next feature (trailer here) and if you’re in the mood to dive into his entire career thus far, pick up the recently released The Wes Anderson Collection.
