Abstract: This essay analyzes the fictional authors who populate Wes Anderson's films and his use of DVD technology to promote his own highly self-aware authorial image. Anderson's authorial logic is organized around the concepts of youth and dependence, positioning itself against the still quite powerful myth of the independent and solitary genius.
