Release: September 29, 2007
Directed by: Wes Anderson
Written by: Wes Anderson, Jason Schwartzman and Roman Coppola
Produced by: Scott Rudin, Lydia Pilcher, Wes Anderson and Roman Coppola
Cast: Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody and Jason Schwartzman

In director Wes Anderson's THE DARJEELING LIMITED, three American brothers who have not spoken to each other in a year set off on a train voyage across India with a plan to find themselves and bond with each other -- to become brothers again like they used to be. Their "spiritual quest", however, veers rapidly off-course (due to events involving over-the-counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray), and they eventually find themselves stranded alone in the middle of the desert with eleven suitcases, a printer, and a laminating machine. At this moment, a new, unplanned journey suddenly begins. Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, and Jason Schwartzman star in this film about their adventure and their friendship.

Looking for the screenplay!

anyone know where I can find a copy of the screenplay. All google searches say that it is here, but I guess they took it down. I need a copy for my studies.

One of the BEST EVER! Santa

One of the BEST EVER!

Santa Cruz loved it! Thanks for a fantastic film. The brothers rocked. So well done and very touching.

Maybe Wes Anderson doesn't

Maybe Wes Anderson doesn't want to censor himself so that religious freaks can feel comfortable watching his wonderful films. I don't think he gives a flying fuck if you Jesus freaks watch his movie or not! Go complain about something important please, leave good movies alone.

This is a wonderfully well-written poignant film that is a must see for all. To the person who keeps saying it is blasphemous - you completely missed the point!

Adrian Brody is remarkable, as usual!

My family and i and friends

My family and i and friends will not see your movies. They contain blashemy. Stop this degrading of God's holy name and ill return to see your movies.

This is a very simplistic

This is a very simplistic comment. The person who wrote this comment could be speaking about anything on television or films in this day and age and not about the particular film in question. Has the person who wrote this ever thought about all the heinous things done by the Catholic church to young native children in Australia, Canada and the United States? That is real blasphemy. In a film, it is a fantasy. You need to stop bringing fundamentalist religious "holier than thou" attitudes to light on a page about film. You should perhaps start a blog and put your beliefs there or even better: go to your church or Temple and express your distate there. Although, I defend your right to make a comment, it has no actual baring on the film you are apparently commenting on . If you were to understand the film, you would have understood that perhaps, It is making a social comment on this so called " blasphemy". Within the context of this day and age it is, perfectly appropriate to hear all forms of language. It is a current part of our evolution as a species. Also, the film was appropriately marked with a rating befitting the age of the public. It is not for you to censor the views of those making well done, artistically fulfilling films. You clearly haven't had a very well rounded education. Please bring your issues elsewhere.

By the way, thank you for making such great films.

You are a retard.

I just saw it last night and

I just saw it last night and really liked it. This is not as funny as Rushmore (the best Wes Anderson movie) but still very good. I love how crazy all of the characters are and the drama that is between then, Owen Wilson makes the move. I wish there were more scenes with Bill Murray his roll was to small. This movie is very real and you the conflicts are great. The photography is beautiful. Well done Wes Anderson you never cease to amaze me.

I'm a pretty big Wes

I'm a pretty big Wes Anderson fan ... his films are intelligent and insightful in ways that most are not, today. However, until Anderson and his producers decide to stop blaspheming the name of God, I cannot continue to watch them. Perhaps this is of little concern to most people, which is fine. But just know that there are many would-be fans of Anderson and his movies out there ... people like me who'd buy a movie ticket to see his films, if not for the blasphemy of God's name contained inside them. Believe me ... Wes Anderson's talents are NOT based in his ability to write these words. Nothing would be lost without them.

Thanks.

Your life is a joke.

Though the Darjeeling

Though the Darjeeling Limited FINALLY opened in our town tonight, me and my friends went to see an absolutely EXCELLENT film, GONE BABY GONE. It's a MUST SEE!!! Tomorrow we're going to see Rendition. That's where our movie dollars are going. :)

Wes, I live in Birmingham,

Wes,

I live in Birmingham, Alabama and was expecting Darjeeling Limited to open here, tonight, October 26. I was inevitably dissapointed to find out in my search for theatres showing it that it was indeed not Birmingham, Al. that was showing the film at all, but Birmingham, Michigan. Wes, why are you doing this? You are alienating the many loyal fans that you have, which, by the way, seem to be decreasing by the minute, myself included. I just can't seem to put my mind around your reasoning for this. Yes, pirating is wrong and rampant, but Wes, let's get real. The only people that care about your movies are the people that have seen them all. You are one of the few writer/directors along with a handful of others with a very real fan following. You have little to none casual fans because with your films you either get it or you don't. So, no one wants to buy your movie on bootleg or download on the internet. Prices don't so much bother me. If I knew i was going to get a quality film like yours I would gladly pay any somewhat reasonable amount by today's standards. "In other words, you fucked us!" (Steve Zissou). Wes, you make great films and for this reason I will still see Darjeeling Limited (one of these days), but now I say this: I am no longer a Wes Anderson fan, I am a fan of Wes Anderson's movies.

Wes, Your wonderful film,

Wes,

Your wonderful film, the Darjeeling Limited, finally arrived in Birmingham. Of course, despite my previous scathings, I saw it. And enjoyed it thouroughly. Although, the film was not in my city at the time I wished it would be, it did make it. It only appeared in one theater and for two weeks only, giving your fans a very narrow window in which to see it. With this reply to my own post, I would like to apologize in full to you for prior remarks. I remain a fan of Wes Anderson and his films. I hope this letter finds you in good health.

With sincerest apologies,

Do you really think Wes puts

Do you really think Wes puts his movies out on Limited release on purpose? Im sure if he had his way it would go into full release IMMEDIATELY but it is not up to him the studios decide when and where they are released. In the case of small moves (such as the Darjeeling) as it gets more popular the more theatres and cities it gets released into. So calm down wait for it to come to DVD and be nice to Wes Anderson.

Well, if people keep driving

Well, if people keep driving crazy distances to view the film, then they are playing right into the hands of whoever has decided to market the film in this manner.

I wanted to see it as soon as I saw the trailer for it, however, now I am so fucking disgusted about getting royally screwed...as if paying $9.00 per movie ticket isn't enough of a screwing...I don't even care to see it...EVER!!

The only power we as consumers have is the power of the pocketbook/wallet. As long as we do not exercise that power, these corporate pigs will continue to rape us.

My family took me 250 miles to D.C. to see the movie for my birthday. I loved it and it was worth the trip.

When is the movie going to

When is the movie going to be realeased everywhere? This is insane. I have been waiting since the 29th of September to see the movie, its Oct.11 right now, and its still not playing. What is going on?

Folks in Atlanta: Any idea

Folks in Atlanta:

Any idea when/where it is going to be released in the metro area? Any of y'all in Midtown or near Tara, any ideas whatsoever as to when this thing is getting released in the Atl?

Why have executives at Searchlight done such a miserable job in the release of this movie? Is anyone listening at Searchlight at all or are we gonna continue to scratch our heads in collective anticipation?

I requested for screening

I requested for screening passes in Atlanta some time ago, but I still have not received the confirmation. Some of my friends got them. :( Anyone else has the same problem?

I too cannot find any information on the "release date" for TDL. It said Oct. 5th for limited release, but I still haven't seen anything further. If anyone finds anything out about it playing in Atlanta, please let me know. Anyone know how to get in contact with someone from FSL?

Helloooooooooooooooooooo

Everything i have seen shows

Everything i have seen shows a release date of Sept 29th for this movie.. but from what i can gather it is 1) not showing in Chicago, 2) there is no announcement where the "limited" release of September is going to be and if it even extends past NYC.

This is extremely frustrating for me as a movie goer. This movie is being reviewed heavily by Salon, NYtimes, etc, but apparently because i only live in the 3rd largest metropolitan area of the United States i don't get to watch this movie.

I know Steve Zizou didn't do as well as Wes Anderson would have liked, but i didn't realize it would relegate him to beneath such filmmakers that do happen to grace Chicago's screens.

From what i can tell this "release date" is only in NYC. THere is NOTHING HERE TO INDICATE if the rest of the country will ever get to see this movie. Do they not have any plans to distribute this movie to the rest of the US. Why call Sept 29th a release date at all?

THese major cities will not get to see this movie on the 29th.

Chelsea Theatre, Chapel

Chelsea Theatre, Chapel Hill, Oct 26, according to the Chelsea site. However, the Fox site doesn't confirm that. I trust Bruce more than I trust Rupert, so I'll be checking by the Chelsea.
