Episode description

This week we discuss Wes Anderson's newest project - Asteroid City! It stars an ensemble cast including Jason Schwartzman, Scarlett Johansson, Tom Hanks, Jeffrey Wright, Tilda Swinton, Bryan Cranston, Edward Norton, Adrien Brody, Liev Schreiber, Hope Davis, Stephen Park, Rupert Friend, Maya Hawke, Steve Carell, Matt Dillon, Hong Chau, Willem Dafoe, Margot Robbie, Tony Revolori, Jake Ryan, and Jeff Goldblum. This film depicts a play centering around a technology convention in the desert in a retrofuturistic version of 1955, but at the same time we see the creation of the play through the lens of a documentary-style presentation. Featuring the signature Wes Anderson style that has garnered praise in the past, this film is surely pleasing to the eye. But... Is Asteroid City Good?
