The French Dispatch
ComedyDramaRomance107 min
As an American magazine in a fictional French city prepares its final issue, Wes Anderson turns its pages into a set of reported stories: an artist serving a life sentence, student unrest that draws in a young activist, and a kidnapping case that runs through the police and a chef’s kitchen. Bill Murray is the paper’s reserved editor, while Jeffrey Wright, Tilda Swinton, Frances McDormand, Benicio del Toro, Léa Seydoux, and Timothée Chalamet move through its world of bylines, lectures, obituaries, and deadlines. The film is structured like the magazine itself, with each piece opening onto its own corner of the city.
