I’ve always been intrigued, but never got around to any of his films. They seem to have a very unique “flavour”, like I can almost taste his style, which I find really interesting.

Should I start with Bottle Rocket and go through by release date, or is there a recommended film to start with?

    I’ve seen all of them, but I’d argue the most accessible is “Life Aquatic”. Especially if you’re old enough to remember all the old Jaques Cousteau stuff on TV.

    The most inscrutable is Asteroid City. You really have no chance of grasping it unless you’re intimately familiar with experimental 1950s stage production like Harold Pinter or Samuel Beckett.
