    Some artists have a way of riveting your vision with the certitude of what they do. This has nothing to do with subject or style. It's inexplicable. Andy Warhol and Grandma Moses. The spareness of Bergman or the Fellini circus. Wes Anderson is like that. ~ Roger Ebert

    What have you seen and how would you rank them?

    Since my #1 and #8 were the only ones I was certain of, I'm glad you agree.

    I've only seen 3: The Grand Budspest Hotel, Moonrise Kingdom & The Royal Tenenbaums. I'd rank them in that order, all of them are great. This reminded me i need to see more of him
