From the visionary who is truly deserving of the title, ‘auteur’, comes Wes Anderson’s 11th feature film. A sci-fi-tinted comedy that ranks among his best and is, all at once, exquisitely styled, profoundly meta, affectingly moving, and infectiously funny. One of America’s most unique cinematic voices has crafted something truly (and fittingly) out-of-this-world.
The year is 1955 and the best and brightest young minds have arrived at a small town in the American West for a Junior Stargazer/Space Cadet convention. When the festivities are spectacularly interrupted by extraterrestrial events, the visitors are forced to quarantine and face their very human issues head-on.
Immaculately composed with Anderson’s trademark charm, this whimsical cinematic delight boasts quite possibly the best ensemble of A-List talent ever put to screen, 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.
"by far the director’s best effort since "The Grand Budapest Hotel," and in some respects the most poignant thing he’s ever made."
