The Royal Tenenbaums (2001)
From Amazon:
Royal Tenenbaum (Gene Hackman) and his wife Etheline (Anjelica Huston) had three children-Chas, Margot, and Richie-and then they separated.

The Royal Tenenbaums is listed as my all time favorite film in my profile, and I doubt that there is anything out there that could change that.
