In the spirit of the abundant holiday gift giving that will be taking place over the next couple of months, all the Metroblogging cities are giving 7 gifts to the world throughout the week of NOV 26th – DEC 2. This is Dallas’ 4th Gift to the World.

THE WILSON BROTHERS + WES ANDERSON
Dallas’ gift 4th gift to the world isn’t necessarily Owen and Luke Wilson. It’s the fact that they were born in Dallas, and then went on to meet Wes Anderson at the University of Texas in Austin and soon after made Bottle Rocket, which launched all of their entertainment careers. Without this combination, there would never have been any of the Wes Anderson movies we all love.
