The Royal Tenenbaums

Synopsis

"Ostensibly based on a nonexistent novel, and told with a narrative influenced by the writing of J.D. Salinger, it follows the lives of three gifted siblings who experience great success in youth, and even greater disappointment and failure in adulthood. The children's eccentric father Royal Tenenbaum (Hackman) leaves them in their adolescent years, then returns to them after they have grown, falsely claiming he has a terminal illness. He works on reconciling with his children and ex-wife (Huston)." [Wikipedia] "The eccentric members of a dysfunctional family reluctantly gather under the same roof for various reasons." [IMDb]
