Wes Anderson doesn’t believe he has an “aesthetic”

Even I can say, “Well, yes, I can say it’s the same person.” » But it’s an invention, you know? What I was doing in [my film] Bottle rocket that was what I had. It was my aesthetic. And that changed in this one. And every time, a lot of the next movie is influenced by something we did in the last one. »
