First off, I just wanted to say I liked it alot too. And much like the person earlier up in this post, I'm not sure why yet either. I thought it was gonna be silly like The Life Aquatic (my favorite Anderson movie, Bill Murray murdered it) but it turned out to be just the opposite. I feel like the movie may have had alot of underlying themes and life experience parallels that I missed. Then again, maybe it didn't and what you saw was what you got. It has definitely kept me thinking. I heard more than one person say "that was really cute" while walking out the theatre. But I feel there's more to it that just being a cute movie.

Anyway, my questions...

1) What do u think was the symbolism (if any) of Bill Murray missing the train in the beginning?

2) How many of you thought it was kinda weird to have them just rip their plane tix up and stay in India at the end?
