From director Wes Anderson, a love letter to journalists set in an outpost of an American newspaper in a fictional 20th-century French city that brings to life a collection of its published stories. The cast includes Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, Timothee Chalamet, Tilda Swinton, Jeffrey Wright and many more. “Anderson has inscribed a billet-doux to The New Yorker in its mid-20th-century glory years that is, at the same time, an ardent, almost orgiastic paean to the pleasures of print. He might be the most passionately literary of living filmmakers, the one whose movies are most like books. Maybe that’s a strange thing to say about an artist with such a recognizable visual aesthetic, but Anderson’s meticulous pictures are themselves evidence of his bookishness.” – New York Times
