I loved it when Augie walked out of the scene near the end to ask the director what the play meant ~ you could see the audience through the half open door!
Scarlet saying she's playing an actor, playing a character who's rehearsing for another role is mind blowing. It's fair to say there's a lot of deconstructing the form of storytelling here, which could easily be portrayed as naval gazing, but it is beautiful
@@adilator it's definitely one of his worst films, but I think the point of it about where emotional beats hit in a film - he gives us glimpses at character development with no real substance (which is a shame given his other work) and one of the most emotional scenes is a monologue by Margot Robbie where she re-enacts a dialogue with the other person actually present. Peculiar and interesting, but not terrible
Meh. To me it was a swing and a miss. I'll take the French Dispatch or Grand Budapest over Asteroid City. But that's my personal feeling, to each his own.
absolutely. this is like the movie Wes wanted to make from day 1 but had to create a whole cinematic language to be able to express it. it's a masterpiece. very very special
Just seen it and loved it. It resonated with my brain, I grinned through half the film and I could watch the intro train ride for hours. Some of the most enjoyable pieces of cinematography that will probably ever exist. It will probably take me years and at least one more viewing with subtitles to catch most details and make more sense of it and I'm already looking forward to hour long youtube videos unraveling the different story arcs and points. But even if you don't really "get it" it's still just such a joy if you have any sense for whimsical or were/are an imaginative child. Funny to hear about the General as a performer. That's what I got too but I really liked it. Like that general actually wished he was a stage performer instead and now is his time to shine. And I thought he did admirably.
Just saw it. I will have to rewatch it ...maybe another two times to fully de-construct each scene and it's meaning. So multidimensional and touching so many subjects. Wes Anderson makes you think (while teasing your cornea!). And that's rare in today's filmography.
It’s a GORGEOUS film. And I understood the concept but had no idea what each scene meant - how it connected. But I had a lot of fun deconstructing the scenic elements and shot techniques.
Jeffrey Wright was the standout performances in this film. He was great in French Dispatch but was on another level in Asteroid City. Particularly, the General’s scene where he’s rushing through the story of his whole life and Wright’s precise delivery really sold the character. I really hope he becomes a regular.
Scary thing is Wes is getting better. He's trimming all the fat and going deeper with his characters in the most minimalist of ways but also giving so much.
I've spent like 2 days unpacking this film in my brain and I'm like 50% sure I know about 50% of what this is about, but I'd need to watch it a second time to see. I've never seen another Wes Anderson movie- apparently all his movies are like this?
I would honestly recommend beginning with Fantastic Mr. Fox-it has all that quirky humor people love about Wes Anderson, but the story is much tighter. You won’t need to spend two days unpacking it.
This movie was so interesting. I’m probably gonna watch it another time just so I can understand it more. However, if your going into your first watch I recommend just letting the film take you along for the ride, instead of trying to understand everything at first.
yeah that's kinda what I did. I tried rewinding and replaying a scene or two just so I could get the meaning behind each one of them. so I ended up not getting the plot at all. rewatched it a second time and just went along and I actually enjoyed it more, felt like I was watching it for the first time.
"and sometimes that is life. You know, you don't understand it, you still have to get up the next day, and put yourself out there". If Walt had said it, it'd be a grim reflection of his sense of how desperately a man should stick to always believing that they're doing the right thing. As Brian, it's just a beautiful description of a gentle confidence in the happenstance of the unexpected.
thankssss, once i saw this video was able to understand the film. Interesting even the actors in it had their own struggles to understand the big picture in this film. :)
Watching a Wes Anderson movie is like watching a long series of trailers: every few minutes could be used as a stand-alone trailer. But after all these trailers are strung together, you are still left with nothing more than a very, very long trailer. The the fact that this accumulation is 'movie length' makes the viewer think that there is something more there . . . but there isn't.
Maybe if you weren't clueless about realizing that celebrities/actors are just people, not some image you have of them. She was perfectly wonderful when she did press and visited places like the farmer's market in our city.
You know you're cool if you are the only one in a room with 5 other people watching this film and you are the only one laughing at the obvious funny parts.
He always adds a distinctive touch to his characters in general, but he's especially captivating when working with Anderson. Roebuck Wright is one of the most quintessential Wes Anderson characters ever
Saw it on Sunday and I get why some poeple do not like it but I really enjoyed it. My Ranking so far: 1. Grand Budapest Hotel 2. Moonrise Kingdom 3. Darjeeling Limited 4. Asteroid City 5. Fantastic Mr. Fox 6. French Dispatch 7. Isle of Dogs 8. The Royal Tennenbaums 9. Life Aquatic 10. Rushmore 11. Bottle Rocket
Visto oggi, mi è piaciuto. Preferisco Asteroid City a The French Dispatch anche se probabilmente rivedrei entrambi. Dietro le quinte interessante, grazie
It is funny to see that even the actors struggle to understand the directions. But they are in that movie and saying their lines. I wish I could understand the love that people have when watching a Wes Anderson movie. For me, it always feels cold and empty. I like slapstick, I like absurdity. But I feel nothing. Emotionally emptiness.
I love to rewatch Moonrise Kingdom, but I have to say Life Aquatic is my favourite. Won't knock Darjeeling Unlimited. The Royal Tenenbaums, a little too much for me, but I still enjoy it. Mr Fox with the kids, anytime. But after Dog Isle I started to get the feeling you speak of. French Dispatch did little to me, probably because it's rooted in a facet of US culture I'm unfamiliar with. Grand Budapest is a mixed bag in this respect for me. Overall, and probably contrary to your feeling, I'm captivated by the constructed reality he builds, the stilted framing. It's soothing, somehow...
It’s funny. I liked the movie, but I’d don’t get it. But I want too. So I’ll be thinking about it for years just trying to get it. Maybe that’s what Wes Anderson wants? 💁🏻♂️
None of these people can actually describe Wes Anderson. He is an enigma, and cannot be explained. He is a force of nature. Everything they say here is just word salad.
Wow, road runner wasn't CG! As for the film, all but the most dedicated Anderson fans have their limits, and this was pushing mine Not for the first time however, so I await his next project
He is the only director who doesn't have to hire black actors for his films - I wonder why and what influences allow him to do so. In fact, the only black actor I noticed in this film was playing a military general - as usual, in the USA, it seems that social advancement for black people is often portrayed solely through the military (and being cannon fodder)
Its very disappointing, that the film takes place around 1957ish, and I see a basically brand "new", mid 50s car rusted, looking like a 50 years old car. Or theres a 1957Chevy on the junkyard, its still a brand new car. Not to mention that did you really scrap american classics just for the sake of the movie? Some people save these cars and you destroy history and artpieces. This describes a slap dash job. Im sorry! Are you really couldnt get a car that was considered old in the 1950s? Maybe an early 20s one? Come on!
Wow, what a perfectly useless, anal, nitpicking, killjoy jerky comment. Can't stand people who have such personal issues that their idea of how to deal with their unhappiness or mental instability is to reach (no matter how far or trivial they have to) and make just cynical, griping comments that really just show how clueless they are.
I loved it when Augie walked out of the scene near the end to ask the director what the play meant ~ you could see the audience through the half open door!
Even the behind the scenes is so aggressively Wes Anderson. Can't wait to see it
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🖐️
And....he finally fails.
Scarlet saying she's playing an actor, playing a character who's rehearsing for another role is mind blowing. It's fair to say there's a lot of deconstructing the form of storytelling here, which could easily be portrayed as naval gazing, but it is beautiful
Actually it's very tedious. a third of the film is wasted on useless narration and 4th wall nonsense.
@@adilator it's definitely one of his worst films, but I think the point of it about where emotional beats hit in a film - he gives us glimpses at character development with no real substance (which is a shame given his other work) and one of the most emotional scenes is a monologue by Margot Robbie where she re-enacts a dialogue with the other person actually present. Peculiar and interesting, but not terrible
This is clearly Wes Anderson’s masterpiece. Completely blown away from every shot, every character, the dialogue, the lack of dialogue, the music.
Meh. To me it was a swing and a miss. I'll take the French Dispatch or Grand Budapest over Asteroid City. But that's my personal feeling, to each his own.
yes seen it twice now love all of this films this is already one of my favorites
absolutely. this is like the movie Wes wanted to make from day 1 but had to create a whole cinematic language to be able to express it. it's a masterpiece. very very special
It's a masterpiece, Idk why a lot of people don't seem to like or understand it.
I'm leaning toward French Dispatch being his crowning achievement.
This for me was the Film of the year and Wes Anderson's Best Film yet! He's such an inspiration. I hope to see more
1:24 - That's the kinda film making I love right there!

I saw it today and loved it. Everyone killed it, wish Jeff Goldblum had more screen time though lol
Where else could one find a vending machine selling real estate?
Just saw it. I will have to rewatch it ...maybe another two times to fully de-construct each scene and it's meaning. So multidimensional and touching so many subjects. Wes Anderson makes you think (while teasing your cornea!). And that's rare in today's filmography.
just take it the way it is, it dont matter there is no deaper meaning
It’s a GORGEOUS film. And I understood the concept but had no idea what each scene meant - how it connected. But I had a lot of fun deconstructing the scenic elements and shot techniques.
The bird is obviously a scene stealer. Any other director that bird would be CGI. Wes is a genius!
Just came from seing the movie, blown away. Had such a great time.
I just LOVED the practical effects and miniatures used in the film.
One of my favorite movies of the year. Another banger from Wes!
This movie looks so incredible good! I can't wait to watch
It is great!
its boring af
It’s amazing

This movie was great. Just watched it today for the first time. Can’t wait to watch it again. It was just so creative.

Adoro o Wes Anderson!! Assisti a todos os filmes dele!!
I saw it a bit ago and I can't comprehend what was in it nor could I make out anything in it. It was a fantastic movie and I would watch again
I am so excited for this, love Anderson’s work!
I loved this movie, very creative and magical
The dancing road runner was a nice ending shot
Yes Adrian Brody said it right in this about Wes.
My favorite Wes Anderson movie !!!
easily entertained, are we?
Beautiful visuals, outstanding cast, bizarre story.
I am sooo much looking forward seeing it on the big screen :D
This is a masterpiece and I absolutely love it !! Thank you for this behind the scene video inspiring deeper thoughts about this movie . ❤
I’m so excited to see this.
Probably most trippy Wes Anderson film ever made.
Its honestly crazy how much set and miniatures were practical.
I love Wes Anderson ❤
Great movie👍
THANKS!
Saw it two days ago, just still don't know what it is about, but it was amazing! 😂

Tom Hanks performance gave me the impression that he was having a blast with his character, as if he really enjoyed working with Wes
This year's oscars are one hell of a show 😮😮😮
I see his movies as magical with meaningful kitsch taste.
Brian Cranston got the thankless role... in this movie. Although there were many to choose from.

Love the way anderson try to soaking up the actors into movie through showing images or songs
This makes me happy(:
I really want to see this. I live in the mountains so it will be like a little journey to see it but that's ok.
Huh, so the bird wasn't CGI. Cool :)
roadrunner!
Meep meep
Thanks
こういうの好き。
The Bird Operators-hysterical. "I gotta speak to my union rep. I'm a 55-year old man, wearing green tights. Somethin's not right!"
I am so watching this....
If only Scarlett (and her PA) had been as kind and gracious when she was filming in our city - either time.
What happened
Maybe if you weren't clueless about realizing that celebrities/actors are just people, not some image you have of them. She was perfectly wonderful when she did press and visited places like the farmer's market in our city.
@@jodyvance1554 wow. So much without knowing the facts. You must be wicked dangerous at the ballot box.
It was in chinchon, Spain 🇪🇸.
What happened?
You know you're cool if you are the only one in a room with 5 other people watching this film and you are the only one laughing at the obvious funny parts.
everytime i watch a Wes Anderson behind the scene, I am watching the dolly grip
Great movie. It was done so well.
I knew the train was not CGI and yet it did not look real.
The miniatures in this movie are fantastic.
This is the story about the story about the story
And the movie is the meta story of the meta story (with breaks to a backstage meta-story).
Wes likes to stay 6 or 7 levels away from humanity
These analogies are like bits from a wes anderson movie
Jeffrey Wright is perfect for WA movies
He always adds a distinctive touch to his characters in general, but he's especially captivating when working with Anderson. Roebuck Wright is one of the most quintessential Wes Anderson characters ever
Saw it on Sunday and I get why some poeple do not like it but I really enjoyed it. My Ranking so far:
1. Grand Budapest Hotel
2. Moonrise Kingdom
3. Darjeeling Limited
4. Asteroid City
5. Fantastic Mr. Fox
6. French Dispatch
7. Isle of Dogs
8. The Royal Tennenbaums
9. Life Aquatic
10. Rushmore
11. Bottle Rocket
Wow your bottom 4 might be my top 4. Still need to see French Dispatch.
@@yommish Apart from Bottle Rocket I still enjoyed these ones as well. Though I personally just liked the others more.
Visto oggi, mi è piaciuto. Preferisco Asteroid City a The French Dispatch anche se probabilmente rivedrei entrambi. Dietro le quinte interessante, grazie
These movies are different,and interesting.But far from groundbreaking any longer.
So true. I watched this thinking this is Wes doing Wes at his Wes-iest. He always crushes the soundtrack, though.
Bryan Cranston absolutely stole the show as the Host 🔥
Can’t wait for the strike to be over, so I can go see this.
its a 10/10 hands down
👍👍👍
It's a different world
It is funny to see that even the actors struggle to understand the directions. But they are in that movie and saying their lines.

which ones have you watched? his first five were the opposite of cold and empty. his last three have been such though.
I love to rewatch Moonrise Kingdom, but I have to say Life Aquatic is my favourite. Won't knock Darjeeling Unlimited. The Royal Tenenbaums, a little too much for me, but I still enjoy it.

@@tomash9116 French Dispatch = Us culture??
His movies are to free our imagination and open our hearts for different interpretations!
@@rockinresurrection6542 he based the french dispath magazine on the new yorker
It’s funny. I liked the movie, but I’d don’t get it. But I want too. So I’ll be thinking about it for years just trying to get it. Maybe that’s what Wes Anderson wants? 💁🏻♂️
Wes anderson is Norman Rockwell filming
agree 100%
O, man. That moment under the filtered sunlight through thatch....
None of these people can actually describe Wes Anderson. He is an enigma, and cannot be explained. He is a force of nature. Everything they say here is just word salad.
I think 'Twee' sums him up nicely.
Sounds more like a 'you problem'. They made very clear, perceptive sense to me.
Jeffrey Wright spoke for about 75% of this video 😂😂
It's a nice film, too bad the brian cranston scenes take up time for no reason.
Wow, road runner wasn't CG! As for the film, all but the most dedicated Anderson fans have their limits, and this was pushing mine Not for the first time however, so I await his next project
The lack of color grading mortified me this is wrong
Like watching a puppeteer play with Barbies. Characters have no emotions and nothing really seems to matter. Looks pretty, though.
He is the only director who doesn't have to hire black actors for his films - I wonder why and what influences allow him to do so. In fact, the only black actor I noticed in this film was playing a military general - as usual, in the USA, it seems that social advancement for black people is often portrayed solely through the military (and being cannon fodder)
You obviously never seen ‘The Royal Tenenbaums’.
When Wes decide to recruit Black Widow, this must be something cool
That seemed like just so much babbling, like nobody knew exactly what was going on.
Babbling? Get off RUclips and go back to knitting a sweater
Gave me a headache.
Get a bigger brain.
his two recent film is just lacks of plot
jeffry wright was clearly not excited or happy about his role or the movie in general
Huh
I don't believe that's true. He previously worked with WA on French Dispatch.
@@MrVisde The person was clearly being facetious.
This feels like they took a freshman film student and asked him to create a Wes Anderson movie
ouch
This film is a cold mess.
This movie was terrible. Worst Wes Anderson movie to date. He makes you feel like the plot and the characters simply do not matter.
Oh no, the worst is that Aquatic Life mess.
Its very disappointing, that the film takes place around 1957ish, and I see a basically brand "new", mid 50s car rusted, looking like a 50 years old car.
