This week, let’s take a tour through Wes Anderson’s magical world, surrounded by his rock’n’roll soundtrack, with a touch of French love (I’m biased, perhaps, but Anderson definitely has a thing for France - Hotel Chevalier and Moonrise Kingdom are just a couple examples upon many). To celebrate his return with Isle of Dogs coming very soon (fingers crossed), let’s dive in the Rolling Stones, Francoise Hardy and Seu Jorge taking on David Bowie, and come on, let’s shag ass. If Royal Tennenbaum can say it, why not us too? So, soak up the sun and dance away!

Wes Anderson is capable of more than his usual fantastical endeavours. In his newest film, he creates something entirely different, even from his nine other films of similar style. The French Dispatch, written, directed, and produced by Wes Anderson, is an anthology of several shorter stories tied together through a writer’s room of the fictional newspaper, Liberty, Kansas Evening Sun. Seemingly inspired by The New Yorker, this film is a tribute to journalism and eccentric storytelling.
