  • Wes Anderson's films are easy to recognize by their design, stylized dialogues and dryly comic acting style. VPRO Cinema asked seven actors from Anderson's new film Asteroid City what it's like to work within that unique world.
    With: Maya Hawke, Rupert Friend, Jeffrey Wright, Bryan Cranston, Adrien Brody, Jake Ryan and Jason Schwartzman.

    I'd be curious to ask Maya - how / or if her parents could be in a Wes Anderson film? like Uma probably, but Ethan is a writer too, maybe not he might "have notes"

    Rupert Friend was amazing as a secondary character in a show about the life of Jack Parsons that was not so good. Rupert really should have played Jack Parsons, and maybe it should have been a feature film instead of a CBS series.

    “I think, to be honest, all art is perhaps not really explainable, and that may be a definition of what art is. (…) For example, if you are in an art gallery, do you read the little card beside the painting and get more than you did just by being with the work? (…) I personally think the reason the painter painted the painting, is because there was no other medium in which to express themselves. So the little card or whatever else, is never going to be as powerful as the painting. The play is the play, the painting is the painting, the music is the music. To not dissect it but to just experience it, may be the point.”

    Apropos to the discussion about "what Wes meant with the wolf," I think it's definitely worth discussing what these things mean between audience members. In the end, the point of art is to imply something for the audience to infer. But the very fact that it's a static piece of art means that it can become a shared experience. We can hear one another's impressions, and by doing so, add to our own. But I think what Maya and Rupert are saying is that we already have the best way the artist can think of to express what he means. That's the art itself. To ask him to paraphrase or interpret it defeats the purpose of it.
    I loved the wolf at the end of Fantastic Mr. Fox, and it gets me tearing up too. I don't think it's pointless to ask why, I just think it's pointless to ask Wes. He already explained it. Now it's up to us to take his interior language, which he was lovely enough to share with us, and interpret that into our own interior language. To me, what's so beautiful and heartbreaking about the wolf is the profound kinship Mr. Fox feels with him, across the profound divide between them. He'll never be the wolf, nor would he even want to be. The wolf is a dream of adventure without end. Wildness. But there's no room in that dream for all the real-world things that matter to Mr. Fox-- his family, his community, a future with some kind of security. Chasing the dream of the wolf is what shattered his and his community's lives. And yet, that dream, and the kinship he feels with the wolf, is an inescapable part of him. I think the tear comes when he realizes that, as much as he longs for that dream, he must stop chasing it. The gulf between them is for his benefit. Crossing it spells doom for him, his family, everything that actually matters.
    Anyway, that was my take. I think Wes said it so much better, with just a fist in the air.

    Can someone, anyone explain to me why anyone thinks this is funny? Most of Wes Anderson's movies are just NOT very funny. Years from now, everyone is going to look at his work and say, "Why did we watch this crap and think it was funny?" These stars are getting shit-loads of money for doing it so why would they say anything to the contrary?

      I am hesitant to recommend comedies because people have such different senses of humor. I remember watching "The Blues Brothers" with some friends who loved the film. I just sat stone faced through the whole film, I didn't find it funny at all. My friends were offended by this. (I watched it again a few years later and still didn't find it funny even though I was a fan of Belushi and Ackroyd from SNL.) .

      Wes uses sarcasm, irony, and childish characters. Sometimes it's just funny because a character is looking at something in the wrong way, or a way that is different than you would expect. It's very subtle stuff going on his movies
