Bottle Rocket - Original Short Film

Wes Anderson's first film Bottle Rocket from 1994 that later became a full feature film by the same time. The short film was originally set to feature established actors but because of the low budget, the main characters were given to brothers Owen Wilson and Luke Wilson, who had never been in a movie before. This short is what put Anderson on the map and set him on the path to make such films as Rushmore (1998) , The Royal Tenenbaums (2001) and The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (2004) . Enjoy.

The sound quality is poor - so turn up that volume. Also i know the video quality is pretty poor but this is a true rarity, not to mention the weapons conversation is worth the watch in of itself. Classic.
