The
Wes Anderson Collection
The Life Aquatic with Steve
Zissou (2004) -- Criterion Collection DVD
"What
would be the scientific purpose of killing it?" "Revenge."
Internationally famous oceanographer Steve Zissou (Bill Murray) and his
crew -- Team Zissou -- set sail on a expedition to hunt down the
mysterious, elusive -- possibly nonexistent -- Jaguar Shark that killed
Zissou's partner during the documentary filming of their latest
adventure. They are joined on their voyage by a young airline co-pilot,
who may or may not be Zissou's son (Owen Wilson), a beautiful
journalist (Cate Blanchett) assigned to write a profile of Zissou, and
his estranged wife and co-producer, Eleanor (Anjelica Huston). They
face overwhelming complications including pirates, kidnapping, and
bankruptcy. Oscar(R)-nominated writer-director (Best Original
Screenplay, THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS, 2001) Wes Anderson has assembled an
all-star cast that also includes Willem Dafoe, Jeff Goldblum, Michael
Gambon, Noah Taylor, and Bud Cort in this wildly original
adventure-comedy.
