Awkwardly damp comedy for everyone to enjoy in Wes Anderson's The French Dispatch.
Here's what we know (so far) about Wes Anderson's newest feature film, The French Dispatch.
From writer/director Francis Lee, the biographical drama Ammonite tells the story of palaeontologist Mary Anning (Kate Winslet), whose solitary work hunting and preserving fossils on the brutal Southern English coastline of Lyme Regis during the 1840s leads to a meeting with a young woman sent to convalesce by the sea. Charlotte (Saoirse Ronan), who is recovering from a personal tragedy that has left her feeling both lonely and disconnected from her husband, develops an intense relationship with Mary that makes them both feel less alone. During this 1-on-1 phone interview with Collider, Saoirse Ronan talked about what …

Wes Anderson is a fastidious filmmaker. We all know this. It's hard not to watch one of his confectionary creations, full of symmetrical images, controlled performances, and impeccable production design and come away with any other conclusion. But I would not call the auteur a maker of "epic movies." Until now. Because the composer of his latest film The French Dispatch, maestro Alexandre Desplat, just revealed to IndieWire how epic Anderson's scope gets. "I saw the finished version of ‘The French Dispatch’ quite a while ago, and it’s just amazing," gushed Desplat, making every film fan jealous …

Before cameras started rolling on Wes Anderson's upcoming feature The French Dispatch, the director had a list of movies he wanted the cast to watch in order to prepare. The cast for Anderson's new movie is one of his most star-studded, with Bill Murray, Owen Wilson, Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, Jeffrey Wright, Adrien Brody, Benicio Del Toro, Léa Seydoux, and Timothée Chalamet joining to tell an anthology of stories set in late 20th-century France.

If you want to get an audience's attention, you can do a lot worse than beginning with an extreme close-up on Richard E. Grant’s impossibly communicative face. With his bright blue eyes beaming against a burnt orange background, locked directly into camera – and thus, staring directly into your soul, the shot holds too still for just a few moments too long while Grant subtly shifts and seems to breathe you in through the screen. It’s an instant shortcut to unnerving the viewer and introduces them to the intimate, curious, and decidedly offbeat world of Dispatches from …
AMC has released the first few minutes of its upcoming limited series Dispatches from Elsewhere, which starts out with a solid 22 seconds of Richard E. Grant staring into your soul. This is how all television shows should start. The series, which was created by and stars Jason Segel, debuts on March 1. The clip introduces Grant as an unreliable narrator in the story of Peter (Segel), an aggressively uninteresting man living an aggressively uninteresting life at an app company in Philadelphia. (A character who puts their life in the hands of bodega sushi is already a character to keep …
Fox Searchlight has released the first trailer for Wes Anderson's new film, The French Dispatch. It's been two years since Anderson has released a feature film (that'd be 2018's Isle of Dogs) and six years since he's released a live-action feature (the unforgettable 2014 Oscar-winner The Grand Budapest Hotel). Now, Anderson has rounded up some of his favorite day players and some new but similarly famous faces for The French Dispatch. Transporting viewers to the tiny, fictional French town of Ennui-sur-Blasé (heh), The French Dispatch "brings to life a collection of …
Bill Murray, Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, and many more star in the first trailer for Wes Anderson's latest movie, The French Dispatch.
