웨스 앤더슨(Wesley Wales Anderson), 미국, 영화감독, 1969-현재
미국의 영화 감독이자 작가. 폴 토머스 앤더슨, 대런 애러노프스키와 함께 1990년대에 등장한 개성있는 젊은 미국 감독이었으며, 자신만의 독특한 미학으로 수많은 마니아 팬을 거느리고 있다.
웨스 앤더슨의 영화 스타일은 조숙과 유치함이 공존하는 별난 캐릭터들을 인공적인 미장센으로 풀어내며, 짐 자머시 스타일의 무덤덤한 표정을 가장한 낭만적인 인디 코미디의 장인이라고 할 수 있다.
자기 색깔과 비전이 확고하기 때문에 컬트적 팬이 많은 편이고 특히 화면 색채가 아름다워 힙스터들에게 인기가 무척 많다. 또한 영화에 대한 비전이 확고하여 각본이 매우 구체적이고 세부적이다. 완벽주의자이며, 영화 철학이 뚜렷하여 배우들에게 즉흥 연기를 대체로 허용하지 않는다. 통제된 상황에서 구상한 장면을 구현하는 스타일이다.
About Him
Wesley Wales Anderson was born in Houston, Texas. His mother, Texas Ann (Burroughs), is an archaeologist turned real estate agent, and his father, Melver Leonard Anderson, worked in advertising and PR. He has two brothers, Eric and Mel. Anderson's parents divorced when he was a young child, an event that he described as the most crucial event of his brothers and his growing up. During childhood, Anderson also began writing plays and making super-8 movies. He was educated at Westchester High School and then St. John's, a private prep school in Houston, Texas, which was later to prove an inspiration for the film Rushmore (1998).
Anderson attended the University of Texas in Austin, where he majored in philosophy. It was there that he met Owen Wilson. They became friends and began making short films, some of which aired on a local cable-access station. One of their shorts was Bottle Rocket (1993), which starred Owen and his brother Luke Wilson. The short was screened at the Sundance Film Festival, where it was successfully received, so much so that they received funding to make a feature-length version. Bottle Rocket (1996) was not a commercial hit, but it gained a cult audience and high-profile fans, which included Martin Scorsese.
Success followed with films such as Rushmore (1998), The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (2004), The Royal Tenenbaums (2001) and an animated feature, Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009). The latter two films earned Anderson Oscar nominations.
