03/18/10 Growing up is hard to do--particularly for Noah Baumbach's raft of characters. From the aimless postgrads of his 1995 debut "Kicking and Screaming" to the excruciatingly immature parents in "The Squid and the Whale" and "Margot at the Wedding" to one thrill-seeking vulpes in his script for Wes Anderson's "The Fantastic Mr. Fox," the Brooklyn-reared Baumbach has always shown a knack for capturing ...

11/26/09 The films of Wes Anderson - among them "The Royal Tenenbaums," "Rushmore" and "The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou" - are the very definition of an acquired taste: You either swoon over the director's fussily art-directed images, his hipster-speak dialogue, and his '60s mod music soundtracks, or (like me) you want to hurl heavy objects at the screen.
