Acclaimed Filmmaker Wes Anderson Releases Enigmatic Desert Epic 'Asteroid City'

  • Wes Anderson's 11th feature film employs a story-within-a-story structure to explore universal themes.
  • The star-studded cast struggles with loss and searches for meaning against the backdrop of 1950s Americana kitsch.
  • Anderson's signature style and vision challenged actors but created a coveted on-set experience.
  • Possible connections to Anderson's earlier work 'Rushmore' suggest 'Asteroid City' is a spiritual sequel exploring art and artist.
