On at 9PM on Film 4 and will likely be repeated this week as they do on Film 4. This film was made in 2021 and will watch it this week as have never seen it before.
You either love Wes Anderson films or not. The last one I paid for the DVD and watched was 'Asteroid city 2023' and it was kind of grim and handed it into charity shop, yet others like The Grand Budapest hotel 2014 are fantastic.
Story for this film according to write up is 'star-encrusted tribute to the New Yorker magazine and covers the final edition of a chaotic fictional publication, following the death of the paper's editor - played by Bill Murray'. We will see tomorrow if this film is good or not.

I quite liked Asteroid City, inasmuch as it went too meta at the end and I'll never watch it again.

Well it took me three days to get through this film. Bit by bit. Good job I taped it.
For a Wes Anderson film it was not that bad, but there again not that good, sort of so so. I was going to pack it in until 'the nude prison woman being painted' scene peaked my interest, then continued on with it to the end LOL.
My conclusion is that I ain't buying any Wes Anderson film again like I did with Asteroid city, and will just wait to see it for free, even if its years later.
