The Royal Tenenbaums is a 2001 film that follows the lives of a dysfunctional family living in New York City. The patriarch, Royal Tenenbaum, attempts to reconnect with his estranged wife and three gifted children, each of whom has experienced early success but is now facing personal struggles. As Royal fakes a terminal illness to gain sympathy and reunite with his family, the film explores themes of family dynamics, redemption, and the complexities of human relationships, all with a touch of Anderson's signature style and humor.
