Flavorwire » Classic Novels and the Filmmakers Who Were Born to Direct Them Franny and Zooey — Wes AndersonThis is an easy one — the prodigy-riddled clan in The Royal Tenenbaums is basically the Glass family anyways, so it would be only right to give Anderson the chance to do it right. We think his penchant for bittersweet nostalgia and sweet strangeness, not to mention his masterful treatment of New York City as a dreamlike fairy tale land, make him the man to adapt the entire Salinger canon — if only that were allowed. YESSS. Fun fact: when I met Wes Anderson in person, my addled brain managed to ask him if he based the Tenenbaums on the Glass family, and he very sweetly and politely responded, “Yes, there was some influence.” After that, I passed out.  Flavorwire » Classic Novels and the Filmmakers Who Were Born to Direct Them Franny and Zooey — Wes AndersonThis is an easy one — the prodigy-riddled clan in The Royal Tenenbaums is basically the Glass family anyways, so it would be only right to give Anderson the chance to do it right.

    Franny and Zooey — Wes Anderson

    This is an easy one — the prodigy-riddled clan in The Royal Tenenbaums is basically the Glass family anyways, so it would be only right to give Anderson the chance to do it right. We think his penchant for bittersweet nostalgia and sweet strangeness, not to mention his masterful treatment of New York City as a dreamlike fairy tale land, make him the man to adapt the entire Salinger canon — if only that were allowed.

    YESSS. Fun fact: when I met Wes Anderson in person, my addled brain managed to ask him if he based the Tenenbaums on the Glass family, and he very sweetly and politely responded, “Yes, there was some influence.”

    After that, I passed out.
