Synopsis:
A year after their father’s death, three American brothers, Francis, Peter and Jack – who haven’t spoken since the funeral – embark on a soul-searching journey across India on board the titular train. The brothers, who don’t get along very well, use the time to get to know each other better and begin to ponder questions like why they don’t like each other, and why their mother didn’t attend the funeral. Francis reveals that their mother has entered a convent in India, and the real reason for organizing the trip was to find her. Their "spiritual quest", however, veers rapidly off-course (due to events involving over-the-counter pain killers, Indian cough syrup, and pepper spray), 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.

CRITIC REVIEWS
Lew Irwin
Darjeeling, written and directed by Wes Anderson (The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic With Steve Zissou) received mixed reviews when it opened in limited release last month. A.O. Scott in the New York Times observed that it was "precious" in both senses of the term -- at once "unstintingly fussy, vain and self-regarding" on the one hand, but, on the other, "a treasure: an odd, flawed, but nonetheless beautifully handmade object as apt to win affection as to provoke annoyance. You might say that it has sentimental value." Roger Ebert in the Chicago Sun-Times awarded it 3 1/2 stars and remarked that it "meanders so persuasively it gets us meandering right along." But in the New York Post, Kyle Smith dismissed it as "a slow train to Dullsville that makes all local stops."
