    That’s how I enjoy them, yes. I have no idea about authorial intent, but I certainly wouldn’t treat them like a second screen experience.

        Oh no, I’m hardly an expert. I think Royal Tennenbaums is my favorite as it was the first one I ever saw.

        The Grand Budapest Hotel is perhaps considered one of his better films, but I don’t know that it worked as well for me as some of the other ones. It was beautiful though.

        If you do give it another try, let me know how it goes and what you think. It may not be for you though and that’s okay. Art is very subjective and there’s probably a huge array of factors that come together to make these films work for me.

          As a non-sophisticated film watcher, I think The Grand Budapest Hotel is really approachable. It has a plot, a lot of the humor is easy to grasp. Narrative structure is mostly easy to follow.
