The Establishing Shot

This week we discuss “Asteroid City”, Wes Anderson’s latest film. With a meta-textual, layered framing device, highly stylized desert set and just as dry characters, and Wes at the height of his powers, this discussion was bound to be great. In our movie news section, we discuss Wes Anderson and other directors of his generation and what makes them tick. Finally, we do a draft of movies with deserts and share our recommendations of the week.

This week we discuss The French Dispatch, Wes Anderson’s first work in an anthology format. This one is both an ode to French cinema and to The New Yorker, is charming in its own drab yet fanciful Anderson way, and is chock full of various filmmaking abstractions. In our movie news section, we discuss current working female directors in anticipation of Greta Gerwig’s Barbie. Finally, we do a draft of writers in movies and share our recommendations of the week.

This week we take a break from our Wes Anderson series for a look at my favorite movies of 2023 so far. It is halfway through the year, and I wanted to share some of the best films I have seen from 2023. Spoiler: there is one Marvel film in my top 8 films, and it is NOT distributed by Disney. There have already been some great movies, and there are more to come! I hope these recommendations will put some new films on your watchlist!
