French dispatch trailer movie#
Everyone looks like they’re in a Wes Anderson movie - and they usually are - and there’s Wes Anderson, and he looks like he’s in a Wes Anderson movie. Speaking to IndieWire last year, Moss said shooting the project was a “surreal experience,” explaining, “I went to France and did two days of shooting and it was like stepping into a Wes Anderson movie. ‘Dune: Part Two’ New Trailer: Timothée Chalamet Prepares to Battle Austin Butler Anderson’s longtime cinematographer Robert Yeoman shot the film, while his frequent composer Alexandre Desplat and editor Andrew Weisblum also worked on the project. Searchlight’s official synopsis for “The French Dispatch” reads: “The film is a love letter to journalists set in an outpost of an American newspaper in a fictional 20th Century French city and brings to life a collection of stories published in ‘The French Dispatch’ magazine.” The ensemble cast includes Bill Murray, Timothee Chalamet, Frances McDormand, Bob Balaban, Jeff Goldblum, Elisabeth Moss, Tilda Swinton, Lea Seydoux Owen Wilson, Jeffrey Wright, Tony Revolori, and more. The studio is surely hoping to have similar success with “The French Dispatch” which, like “Grand Budapest,” boasts a star-studded ensemble cast. The French Dispatch comes to cinemas in the US on 24 July, and then to the UK on 28 August.Following yesterday’s batch of first look photos, Searchlight Pictures has dropped the first trailer for Wes Anderson’s highly anticipated 10th feature film, “ The French Dispatch.” Anderson last directed the stop-motion adventure “Isle of Dogs,” making “French Dispatch” his first live-action effort since the release of “The Grand Budapest Hotel.” Searchlight released “Grand Budapest” in March 2014 to nine Oscar nominations (including Best Picture and Best Director) and $172 million worldwide on a $25 million production budget. Ladies and gentlemen, start the engines of your charmingly old-fashioned motorbikes – a major new work from a major artist is almost here. And as in The Grand Budapest Hotel, the elaborate multi-tier narrative will skitter across the twentieth century to chart change on an epochal scale. As in Isle of Dogs, an uprising from a faction of politically active young people will play a major role. As in The Life Aquatic, the film focuses on a large creative collaboration (a ready metaphor for a film set). What’s for certain is that Anderson’s sticking with his pet themes and devices this time around. One might assume the black-and-white segments would be the reportage within the film, but assorted characters appear in both styles, so it’s difficult to say at present.


In the third, an expert chef (Stephen Park) caters to the palates of the local police force as a kidnapping case unfolds before their very eyes.Īs the whirlwind trailer whisks us through those stories and the outer world containing them, it flits between aspect ratios and color schemes. In another, a student revolutionary (a floppy-haired, nude, bath-taking Timothée Chalamet) finds himself at the center of a massive social upheaval. In one, a world-renowned art dealer ( Adrien Brody) comes to make purchase of a painting created by a death-row prisoner. The film jumps back and forth between the universe of their bustling office, and the stories-within-the-story presented by the various articles to be included in their latest edition.

The harried editor ( Bill Murray) rushes to complete a new issue while tending to the many eccentric personalities in his orbit, from food writer Roebuck Wright ( Jeffrey Wright) to politics reporter Lucinda Krementz ( Frances McDormand) to temperamental profile writer Herbsaint Salzerac ( Owen Wilson). In an article from that very publication yesterday, Anderson confessed to having been an obsessive collector of back issues since his younger years. The film follows the operations of the French headquarters of the Liberty, Kansas Evening Sun, a stylish and witty American journal with more than a passing resemblance to the New Yorker. There’s no time to lose, so let’s dig in: Wes Anderson has done us the service of breaking up the workweek with an early look at his upcoming film, The French Dispatch, prior to a likely premiere at the Cannes Film Festival (which gave his Moonrise Kingdom a friendly home in 2012).
