The French Dispatch (Wes Anderson, October 22, 2021) Movie • Page 12

I haven't watched this since it came out but the only color scene I remember is the one with Saorsie Ronan's eyes

 

the entirety of the newspaper offices (Bill Murray stuff) is in color, the whole Owen Wilson sequence is in color, a few moments in del Toro (revealing the paintings and a few others), the whole interview parts in the Jeffrey Wright segment, the two animated sequences, a few moments in the Chamlet sequence... just off the top of my head

 

yet the one they remember is the dopest shot in the movie, the shot of saorise ronan’s eyes

it is an effective use of color

 

Oh yeah, I didn't really count the animated part or office stuff, but did remember Chalamet parts

or it's because she's my biggest celebrity crush

 

B&W is good.

I don't remember the eye shot but I also didn't know Saoirse Ronan was in this

 

I was incredibly bored by this.

 

Zero special features on the iTunes release :(

 

none on the blu ray either, sad

 

I imagine the inevitable Criterion release will be packed with extras. Regardless of how anyone feels of it as a movie, it's a technical marvel. I would love to see how it was made.

 

Cumberbatch is going to fit right in

 

DEV!!!!

 

The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar (Wes Anderson, TBA) • forum.chorus.fm

 

Watching this now

 

This was okay. Some of the stories were interesting but overall I wasn't enthralled by any of it. Definitely a Wes Anderson film though.

 

hbo max 2/25

 

this is an absolute perfect cast for Wes. Ralph Finneas in Grand Budapest is one of my favorite performances ever

 

no parody could ever out wes wes.

 

Finally got around to this. I mostly enjoyed it, even if it felt like more of a minor work. Kind of like a band releasing a tribute album.

 

i thought this was great. not Budapest level, but I’d put it in the top half of his filmography.

 

Probably one of my least favorite wes Anderson movies. Kinda boring and just same old same old Wes Anderson. Its a shtick we've done so many times already and I think its finally run its course.

Too clever for its own good.

 

It’s just mostly boring
