That’s because he voices characters in fantastic mr Fox and isle of dogs, and also he has a very specific style that kind of incorporates his personality into his films
He actually appears in most of his movies to an extent. In Budapest, in the scene in the prison when they split up the Mendls cake, he is the one actually cutting at, with other grabbing a piece. He voices the weasel in Mr Fox, is a commentator in the Tenenbaums, as well as the person in the seat behind the 2 main characters on a bus in his first ever film with Owen Wilson (haven’t watched it, but I researched him a little). He’s almost always there in one of his movies, with a potential few exceptions.
@@curtfoosss Well, they were school buds. And yes, totally reminds me of Owen's "Where's my shoe?" line in The Royal Tenenbaums, and "I'll have a slice" in The French Dispatch. They seem to be simpatico.
That might actually be the case. You know at one point he was doing a directors commentary for one of his films and he had to pause it because he had a phone call which he picked up from an old rotary phone. He also lives in Paris, France and helped design a French cafe as well as the interior of a train car.
Fun fact: at 1:32, it is a reference to when they were filming Rushmore and needed a helicopter to film, but the movie’s budget couldn’t afford it. So Bill Murray took out a check and just paid for the helicopter himself
+Kay H Well, pardon me if you already know it, but this commercial is entirely base on a french movie called ''La nuit américaine'' (''Day for Night'' in english). It is still a good commercial but not as unique as you may think.
+Kay H May I suggest you to watch 'Shoot The Piano Player' and 'Jules and Jim'? Both movies by the same director (François Truffaut), and certainly influencial on Wes Anderson. Ciao!
@@davidlapointe6016 Based on your recommendation to OP I got into Truffaut's movies. Just saw Day for Night a last night. Amazing film and I cant thank you enough!
So glad I'm not the only one that noticed that! For those wondering, there's a documentary on the making of The Shining and Kubrick keeps saying this to Shelley Duvall.
I love all the little things he mumbles to himself, like he doesn't care when things go wrong because everything just gonna fall back into place anyway. "You don't have her? What happened..."
@Alfredo yeah I think Royal Tennenbaums might be his best it has the perfect mixture of emotional character stuff and the iconic Wes Anderson soundtrack/production Design also. But I would put Grand Budapest Hotel, Rushmore, & Moonrise Kingdom right underneath it on the top 5
I remember when this ad played in theaters. Even though I loved his movies at the time, I didn’t fully appreciate this ad until years later. It perfectly encapsulates everything about how he makes movies. The irony is a few years later, he would use the Day for Night music heard here in Fantastic Mr. Fox during Fox’s speech redo. While he found great use for it there, I still think it was used best here.
This is the most beautiful homage to Francois Truffaut, just beautiful, how amazing that he could combine such a hilarious ad with an homage to the movie Day For Night right down to the gorgeous music.
Wes Anderson telling an actor that their delivery sounds "fake" would never happen. I feel like he'd almost encourage a poor performance for the style points.
The “fake” line and Anderson’s insistent delivery of it are almost certainly referencing Kubrick’s treatment of Shelly Duvall on The Shining set. The entire advert is full of winks and nods to Anderson’s influences, from Bertolucci and Polanski, to, most obviously, François Truffaut.
I can only imagine that American Express is pinching themselves that someone had the foresight to put up the money to make this 'commercial'. 2024 and people are STILL watching it.
I miss this Wes Anderson. His recent film, 'The French Dispatch', and by the looks of it, the right now yet-to-be-released 'Asteroid City', are more akin to dioramas than films.
" You'll never make it Fransua...." " Nyther will you...." 👏🏻 Post script: There's more in this 2:00 than 3/4 of all movies that have been made. Disclaimer: My opinion of course.
Don't you guys know anything about Wes Anderson? They were pigeons _striving_ to be penguins. And not quite making it. But playing that penguin thing to the hilt all the same. For what else can one do?

Wes anderson sounds like someone who'd appear in his movie
That’s because he voices characters in fantastic mr Fox and isle of dogs, and also he has a very specific style that kind of incorporates his personality into his films
@@maxalvarez5223 thank you for helping me find out that Kristofferson is Wes' brother
@@4rtie actually cousin☝️ his father has double pneumonia
@@maxalvarez5223 he’s got one foot in the grave and two feet on a banana peel...
And BTW, Wes plays the weasel real estate agent in Fantastic Fox.
Wes Anderson is the most Wes Anderson character ever.
dah
Because he’s incredibly true to himself and just makes what he like so he looks like his characters
can't wait till the day he finally appears in one of his own films. he is the personification of everything he puts to the screen.
Madison Bouse well it turns out he voiced someone in Fantastic Mr. Fox
He also played one of the Tennis commentators on the Royal Tenenbaums and he can barely be seen sit back to Anthony and Dignan on Bottle Rocket.
He should do cameos like Tarantino, it'll be amazing

Late, but he’s also one of the police officers in Rushmore during the quick scene where Max is taken out of police custody by his dad
The way he says "are those my birds?" and "I need those!" are just perfect.
he sounds and moves his head like Owen Wilson in that moment or is it just me
@@curtfoosss Wow
I like “I’m gonna sit there, what are you doing there”
@@curtfoosss Well, they were school buds. And yes, totally reminds me of Owen's "Where's my shoe?" line in The Royal Tenenbaums, and "I'll have a slice" in The French Dispatch. They seem to be simpatico.
I am completely ready to believe that every moment of every day of Wes Anderson's life is actually like this.
Tim H RIGHT???
It would be even better if he were just a slob, and didn’t do much during his off time.
Exactly, they are all just “home movies.”
That might actually be the case. You know at one point he was doing a directors commentary for one of his films and he had to pause it because he had a phone call which he picked up from an old rotary phone. He also lives in Paris, France and helped design a French cafe as well as the interior of a train car.
I think the phone was a joke though
“Can I get a .357 with a bayonet?”.
You can take the boy out of Texas, but you can’t take the Texas out of the boy.
Very true - considering his mother is literally called Texas.
@@JiMuKai Did you mean, "He literally came out of Texas"?
@@JiveDadson No, but that works too, I guess
@@JiMuKai wait really?
@@natebit8130 It's very much a Texan thing to name your kids after the state or places there e.g. Houston or Austin or Dallas.

This commercial... I can't even.. Wes Anderson is a moviemaking genius, love him
+Kay H Well, pardon me if you already know it, but this commercial is entirely base on a french movie called ''La nuit américaine'' (''Day for Night'' in english). It is still a good commercial but not as unique as you may think.
David Lapointe Good to know, I'll be sure to check out that movie to see just what inspired this commercial.
+Kay H May I suggest you to watch 'Shoot The Piano Player' and 'Jules and Jim'? Both movies by the same director (François Truffaut), and certainly influencial on Wes Anderson. Ciao!
Kay H One of my favorite directors
@@davidlapointe6016 Based on your recommendation to OP I got into Truffaut's movies. Just saw Day for Night a last night. Amazing film and I cant thank you enough!
According to a lot of repeat Wes Anderson actors this is pretty much accurate and that's why they keep working with him.
Lmao "not enough smoke and the snow was too loud"
That's his cinematographer Robert Yeoman sitting beside him at the end
"I'm telling you, it looks fake" is a Stanley Kubrick reference
So glad I'm not the only one that noticed that! For those wondering, there's a documentary on the making of The Shining and Kubrick keeps saying this to Shelley Duvall.
He said "It SOUNDS fake."
ooooh yeeeaaah..
I'm sure directors say that often though lol
@@greenbeans8204 no they don't
yur right!
A very moving and funny tribute to François Truffaut's 'Day For Night' down to the music by Delerue.
Love it !
plagiarism is called tribute in US of A.
@@mohmetamt Lmao Europeans do it more than anyone and you look pathetic. x
@@mohmetamt Are you saying Americans don't understand the word plagiarism? Because this isn't it.
I love his "7 year old kid"-style signature.
I love all the little things he mumbles to himself, like he doesn't care when things go wrong because everything just gonna fall back into place anyway. "You don't have her? What happened..."
I fucking love Wes Anderson. The grand Budapest hotel" is a masterpiece of filmmaking.
Yes sir!
As someone studying design, Wes Anderson is a design lover's dream! ❤️
@Alfredo yeah I think Royal Tennenbaums might be his best it has the perfect mixture of emotional character stuff and the iconic Wes Anderson soundtrack/production Design also. But I would put Grand Budapest Hotel, Rushmore, & Moonrise Kingdom right underneath it on the top 5
Needs more Bill Murray
I know, right???? A cameo from Bill Murray in that commercial, and I would be very happy! :-D
Not enough cowbell either
This ad was better than most films I’ve seen.
Wes Anderson is talented and, frankly, quite gorgeous as well.
I watch this video every few months. It always puts a smile on my face.
Okay I finally watched one these ads. I’ll never miss a Wes Anderson movie. Even a short one.
I remember when this ad played in theaters. Even though I loved his movies at the time, I didn’t fully appreciate this ad until years later. It perfectly encapsulates everything about how he makes movies. The irony is a few years later, he would use the Day for Night music heard here in Fantastic Mr. Fox during Fox’s speech redo.

Wes Anderson is somehow pure 1970's
The absolute mad man.
You can tell a film director directed this ad. 30 seconds in and you still don't even know what it's for.
Congrats Wes Anderson on your first Oscar win!!! 🏆
this is the greatest commercial ever
One of the best commercials ever.
This is the most beautiful homage to Francois Truffaut, just beautiful, how amazing that he could combine such a hilarious ad with an homage to the movie Day For Night right down to the gorgeous music.
Charming Wes Anderson ad, but somehow feels incomplete without the Wilson bros, and Bill Murray. At least Schwartzman was in this. 😎
I love the way that with every criterion of his you buy, you get the signature that perfectly matches this one. I adore Wes so much.
Wes Anderson just being Wes Anderson
That little tongue at the end got me every time
if even 5 percent of my life were as smoothly executed as this commercial i think i'd be fine
Wes Anderson telling an actor that their delivery sounds "fake" would never happen. I feel like he'd almost encourage a poor performance for the style points.

@@quinncide it’s such a charming tribute to cinema, it goes wayyyyyyyy harder than it needs to
Is that George Delerue's music for Truffaut's 'Day For Night' I hear? Why yes, I believe it is. Nice one, Wes.
100% an homage, and not the first time he referenced Truffaut in his work!
It's like he's possessed by Jeff Goldblum.
I want to see the film he's making there!
I want that safari jacket.
I want to be on that set so bad.
Wes Anderson is a filmmaker for the person with ocd. The symmetry is just amazing
I can only imagine that American Express is pinching themselves that someone had the foresight to put up the money to make this 'commercial'. 2024 and people are STILL watching it.
That 🍟 hand off was perfection. ❤
Lol I think this may have been one of the earliest crossovers between hipsterdom and corporate in the mid-00s
Wes is the best!!
I still have to recover after watching this for the first time
Wes Anderson looks like a potential cast forWilly Wonka
Wes: where’s my snack
I don’t know her name: you’re eating it
Who’s here after watching Wes Anderson’s Montblanc commercial that just came out?
Just brilliant.
Still the greatest Amex commercial ever.
"We need those!"
he didn't say the exclamation mark
I've just heard of this guy but is this a real ad? It's weird and brilliant
Yes it was.
look at his movies, they are incredibly unique and awsome
We all wish we could be as cool as Wes Anderson
whatever he says at 1:42 makes me laugh every time.
"what are you doing there" to the person in his chair
Bose commercial with Donald Glover took me here
I miss this Wes Anderson. His recent film, 'The French Dispatch', and by the looks of it, the right now yet-to-be-released 'Asteroid City', are more akin to dioramas than films.
For reason I am fascinated by the woman who appears to eat the banana without consuming it.
I’m pretty sure that’s Bob Yeoman riding shotgun on the crane rig.
LOVE HIS FILMS!
" You'll never make it Fransua...."
" Nyther will you...."
👏🏻
Post script:
There's more in this 2:00 than 3/4 of all movies that have been made.
Disclaimer:
My opinion of course.
Big up the Bob Yeoman cameo at the end!
So that's how he makes movies, I knew it (!)
Perfection! 👏👏
I am now convinced this is what his sets are like
Thanks for the good video quality
It's more of a homage to Day for Night, I think.
I would watch whatever film he was making when the camera crew showed up to shoot this commercial.
Anyway, American Express Commercial, here we go.
No superlative is superlative enough to describe this goodness.
LMAO I'M DEAD BRO
Why do I feel so disappointed that it was only a two minute commercial. I could’ve easily watch this for another 1:58 minutes
Even the Amex adverts are just like his movies. 27 Feb 2022 after watching the Darjeeling limited and hotel chevalier.
he seems so pleasant and easy to work with in this commercial.
very cool
“That’s blackmail, but I gues it works 🤷🏻”
Awesome commercial.
hahahah I think penguins in the face was totally unscripted and unexpected, he freaked out too much!
Do you really think those were penguins?
Don't you guys know anything about Wes Anderson? They were pigeons _striving_ to be penguins. And not quite making it. But playing that penguin thing to the hilt all the same. For what else can one do?
Pigeons but your comment is way funnier
penguins don't fly that fast
Regardless of circumstance, if penguins ever fly by me, I will freak out.
Only Wes would take a French film (La Nuiit Américaine) and turn it into a commercial.
That's some second grade penmanship on that signature.
Wes Anderson is simply David Lynch but in complete sentences.
Don’t know exactly what you mean by that but i feel in many ways Anderson is the complete antithesis of Lynch
“The snow was too loud” What? Hahaha
He looks fantastic for his age
This is like 10 years ago but still yeah
This aired in 2006
seems like most people havent since this only has 200 comments in 13 years
brilliant
Biggest surprise for me was seeing Wes tower over everyone, definitely though he was like 5’9” or so, he looks like he’s 6’2” at least.
So fu king awesome
Genius!
love it
wow!
Yes
0:32 I had no idea Alec Baldwin was on set
The Day For Night music is just the cherry on top
This is so La Nuit Americane. Fantastic nevertheless...
That's kinda the point!
never heard of this until now wtf
PRAY FOR PEACE😍
Can i get my snack?
You're eating it.
Seeing him act as himself makes since that Max Fischer from Rushmore was based on him
The errant gunshot aged like milk.
Do you losers have any hobbies besides spamming this comment?
What kind of jacket is he wearing
