A long and delicious NYMag article with and about Wes Anderson is bound to yield some interesting stories. And one regarding a large sum of cash in Andersons suit case is no exception.
Also somewhat peculiar is the fact that buried in one of Anderson's monogrammed suitcases is 10,000 euros in cash--about $14,000--an amount that may or may not be legal to carry, and that was given to the director by Bill Murray, who asked that the money be "delivered to Luigi.""It's not as weird as it sounds. Luigi was Bill's landlord when we shot The Life Aquatic," explains Anderson, talking about his last movie, parts of which were filmed in Rome.
"But," I ask, "wasn't that back in 2004?"
"Yeah, Bill can be a little weird with time. But there's no hard feelings or anything. I think Luigi and Bill have a pretty good rapport, though Luigi will probably be happy to get his money."
