There are, of course, a million reasons to be in love with the movie, but for me it's the similarity to a Salinger novel that does it. Not any Salinger novel in particular, but the feeling of all of them. Wes Anderson does an incredible job of portraying a family...or a group of people forced to live their lives entangled together. The story is spectacular, the costumes spot on, and the cast amazing. I have seen it a million times, and could watch it a million more.
