Wes Anderson’s directorial style is extremely distinctive, particularly when it comes to his poignant use of pacing, which is why this Wes Anderson [slow-motion compilation video](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/slow-tv-series) is so on point. Edited by Allejandro Prullansky, WES (A Slow Motion Compilation) contains a series of slow-motion shots from several of Anderson’s [quirky movies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-wizard-of-oz-capsule).

The short video uses scenes from a variety of Wes Anderson films, from his earlier work like Bottle Rocket and Rushmore to the more recent Moonlight Kingdom. Classics including The Royal Tenenbaums are also featured in the Wes Anderson slow-motion shot compilation. It will come as no surprise to other observant Anderson fans that Jason Schwartzman stars in the majority of these scenes, with repeat appearances by Bill Murray and Owen Wilson as well.
