The Phoenician Scheme review

Step into the surreal as we unpack The Phoenician Scheme, Wes Anderson’s most philosophical film to date. From Benicio del Toro’s unhinged performance to breakout star Mia Threapleton and Michael Cera's Scandinavian turn, this is Anderson artistry like you've never seen. We dive into the film’s obsession with death, legacy and losing control, and talk about the signature style that meets a bold new darkness. Is this Anderson's return to peak form? Or has his whimsy worn thin?
