No one does whimsy like the great Wes Anderson and The Darjeeling Limited is our favourite example from his superior cinematic canon. Three estranged brothers reunite in India and so begins a chaotic and freewheeling comic misadventure that swings from Three Stooges silliness (of the inspired variety) to heartbreaking melodrama. Inventive, imaginative and sublimely scored. Throughout the film audience members can enjoy a taste along courtesy of Birmingham Whisky Club and Paul John Indian Single Malt. How does two whisky cocktails and tasters of the spirits that have gone into them sound? Yes we’re excited too.
