We interrupt our regularly scheduled mini-series with a BONUS FEATURE as we return to Wes Anderson for a look at his latest film, 2023’s ASTEROID CITY.

Releasing less than 2 years after The French Dispatch, Wes Anderson returns to cinemas with another film featuring a framing device and a massive ensemble. This time, a play about a small desert town forced into quarantine after an interaction with an alien visitor and the effect it has on the lives of the people trapped there.

Join Nick and Scott as they dig into one of Wes Anderson’s best films, as well as his deepest and most thematically rich as it examines life’s biggest questions and the very nature of art itself.
