  Is Wes Anderson secretly gay and hiding in the closet?

Wes Anderson is celebrating his 55th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed directors of his generation.

Popular director-screenwriter-producer Wes Anderson (The Grand Budapest Hotel, Moonrise Kingdom, Fantastic Mr. Fox, The Royal Tenenbaums, Rushmore, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 55th birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Anderson, a cultural icon

Born Wesley Wales Anderson in Houston on May 1, 1969, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in American history. Anderson's not just a great director, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Wes hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Wes Anderson as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 55.

Happy Birthday, Wes, you're the best!
