The Margot Robbie scene in Asteroid City is one of the most deeply touching things in his entire filmography. That movie is one of his best imo

 

I don't even remember Robbie being in that movie. I might have to go back.

 

it’s only one scene

 

The Robbie scene brings me to tears almost every time I watch. "And I say... all my pictures come out."

Same for the "I've had a rough year." in Tenenbaums. "I hope he remembers me." in Life Aquatic.

Love Wes.

 

every Wes movie has one scene (usually in the middle but in Grand Budapest it's the very end) that drops all the zany silly stuff and just punches you right in the heart. he's great at it

 

The one scene in “Moonrise Kingdom” where the girl is waxing rhapsodic about being an orphan and the boy stops her and says “I love you, but you don’t know what you’re talking about” is a such funny, grounding scene.
