Wes Anderson's movies unfold to reveal more about themselves with each rewatch, but I wasn't quite expecting this one to have as much depth. However, when Anthony tells his little sister, “I can't go home. I'm an adult,” a throwaway line to me when I was younger revealed itself to be an apt throughline in all of his work: the longing for the past, when we maybe didn't have to have it all figured out yet in this case, when we were child prodigy tennis stars in others. Much more fully realized than I had remembered.
