CENTURY CITY, Calif. – A magical train ride through India brings three brothers closer together despite their family baggage in The Darjeeling Limited, a powerful story of self-discovery debuting on DVD February 26 from Fox Home Entertainment. Featuring an amazingly talented cast including Owen Wilson (You, Me and Dupree Wedding Crashers) Academy AwardÒ 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 comedic series of unexpected twists and turns involving over-the-counter painkillers, Indian cough syrup and one 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 The cast also features Academy AwardÒ-winner Anjelica Huston (Prizzi’s Honor), a cameo from Bill Murray (Lost In Translation) as well as a special performance by OscarÒ-nominee Natalie Portman (Closer) in the film’s featurette “Hotel Chevalier.” Featuring commentary and four featurettes, The Darjeeling Limited will be available for the suggested retail price of $29.98 U.S. / $43.48 Canada. Prebook is January 2, 2008.
Synopsis:
Three American brothers who have not spoken to one another 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 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.
