The Wes Anderson Version Of The State Of The Union Address Is Too Precious

On Tuesday night, all eyes were on President Obama as he delivered his seventh and final State of the Union address. Well, not all eyes. A lot of eyes were also on Michelle Obama who was looking right in a mustard yellow dress (sleeveless, of course).

Obama's speech could likely go down in history as one of the most optimistic. Among one of the top quotes to get you pumped about being an American:

The United States of America is the most powerful nation on Earth. Period. It's not even close.

In case you missed it (or are down for a second viewing), here's your chance to watch the precious, stylized version of the SOTU. In my opinion, there's no better way to get your presidential addresses than watching them reimagined as Wes Anderson movies.

Spoiler alert: Gwyneth Paltrow wasn't able to attend in her kohl-circled eyes and fur coat.
