Press Release

Blue Devil Productions will be screening The Darjeeling Limited at the University of Wisconsin-Stout on Friday, April 25, 2008 at 7 p.m. in Applied Arts 210.

In the mood for a witty, whimsical comedy? Then climb aboard the Darjeeling Limited! A magical train ride through India brings three brothers closer together despite their family baggage. Featuring an amazingly talented cast including Owen Wilson (You, Me and Dupree, and The Wedding Crashers) Academy Award winner Adrien Brody (The Pianist), and Jason Schwartzman (Marie Antoinette, Shopgirl) as estranged brothers who plan a trip through India to rediscover their familial bond a year after their father’s death. A series of unexpected twists and turns involving over-the-counter painkillers, Indian cough syrup and a poisonous snake leave them stranded in uncharted territory. The Darjeeling Limited beautifully encompasses the gift of brotherly love discovered during an unexpected “spiritual” journey. “An extraordinary movie, filled with splendor, laughter and a touch of cosmic wisdom,” (LA Daily News). The film displays a ridiculously entertaining blend of comedy and drama. Co-written and directed by innovative filmmaker Wes Anderson (The Royal Tenenbaums, Rushmore) The Darjeeling Limited opened the 45th New York Film Festival and was an official selection of the 2007 Venice Film Festival.
