The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (Criterion Collection) – Blu-ray

WES ANDERSON’S VISUALLY ASTONISHING COMEDY
Internationally famous oceanographer Steve Zissou (BILL MURRAY) and his crew—Team Zissou—set sail on an expedition to hunt down the mysterious, elusive, possibly non-existent 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 (OWEN WILSON); a pregnant journalist (CATE BLANCHETT); and Zissou’s estranged wife, Eleanor (ANJELICA HUSTON). WES ANDERSON (Rushmore) has assembled an all-star cast that also includes WILLEM DAFOE, JEFF GOLDBLUM, MICHAEL GAMBON, NOAH TAYLOR, SEU JORGE, and BUD CORT for this wildly original adventure comedy.
