In his new Christmas short film for H&M, Wes Anderson just gave The Darjeeling Limited its spiritual sequel.
Similar to his 2007 film, Anderson's new four-minute ad takes place on a train and stars Adrien Brody. The clip, shot in Anderson's signature style, features Brody as the conductor, who helps throw a Christmas party for his passengers after nasty weather and train delays ruins their holiday plans.
