‘The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou’
The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou is Wes Anderson’s tongue-in-cheek ode to the adventures of underwater explorer Jacques-Yves Cousteau. Bill Murray stars as Steve Zissou, an offbeat oceanographer with a bone to pick with a jaguar shark. The film uses this Moby Dick pastiche to unite a quirky cavalcade of characters on Zissou’s quest. The all-star cast includes Cate Blanchett, Michael Gambon, Anjelica Huston, Owen Wilson, and Jeff Goldblum. It’s a whimsical and weird look at life.
