Books we know, but how do you capture a magazine on the screen? Not the easy way, but by making the viewing of it like an experience of reading it?

If you are Wes Anderson, you begin by fictionalising it to better capture its truth. You replicate its unique graphics and visual style. You introduce characters who are composites of the real writers, you switch narrative techniques, bring in self-conscious stagecraft, and infuse it all with an energy that makes everything jump off the screen.

Finally, you create an anthology both to pack in more and give everything breathing space. All this you do in loving homage to a magazine that has been a part of you since you were in the eleventh grade, as Anderson was when he first read it.
