American eccentric cinema

American eccentric cinema is when filmmakers make movies that are a little bit strange, funny, and not like the "normal" types of movies you usually see. The characters, stories, or scenes in these movies are made to be funny, quirky, and often times unexpected. They might also explore unusual topics or ideas in an interesting way. An example of an American eccentric movie is Wes Anderson's The Grand Budapest Hotel.
