You know what cool is? Cool is doing something great effortlessly. And that is why I just love the movie Royal Tenenbaums. Its about this misfit family beginning with- the father, "Royal", is a selfish bombastic ass of a lawyer who doesn't think twice about stealing from his kids, Etheline, the mother, is an urban archaeologists who later attracts a string of bizarre suitors, and the kids well... played with deadpan precision by Ben Stiller, Clive Owens, Paltrow etc. Clive Owens plays an outstanding performance as "the nerdy kid next door" who dreams of being part of the wacky family.
Read the reviews here- at www.imdb.com.
You get plenty of ironic, dead-pan humor, sometimes hilarious, sometimes just sweet and funny, and some of the best satires on New Yorkers... Brilliant acting and directing.
On a sidenote, I found the peculiar painting on Eli Cash (Owen Wilson's) flat very funny for some reason.
Anyhow, if you have nothing better to do on a Sunday night. Go watch it. Borrow it on DVD or VHS.
Its one of the best movies made.
