Unlike the other writers, we get a small peak into who Lucinda is as a person. On his first meeting with Lucinda, Zeffirelli is in the bath, and he remarks, “I feel shy about my new muscles.” McDormand and Chalamet have chemistry in their scenes. Chalamet is an appropriate fit for Anderson. Even if the story trends zany, the performances are subdued. They don’t overact, like Swinton and Brody, who try to lace every line with giddy, self-satisfied energy. They feel human, and not like caricatures. While the story is a little all over the map, even for Anderson, McDormand and Chalamet keep it grounded. The third segment is the “Politics and Poetry” section, which follows Lucinda Krementz (Frances McDormand) as she documents a group of young revolutionaries led by a 19-year-old named Zeffirelli (Timothée Chalamet). It embraces the setting, and Del Toro gets an opportunity to show his range, but it seems to end in chaos not because it should, but because it was the easy choice.
There’s something that doesn’t fit in this story of an imprisoned artist, his muse, and his greedy broker, played by Adrien Brody. The story has some charm, particularly when a prison guard, Simone (Lea Seydoux) takes pity on Moses and continues to pose nude for him, but it starts to drag. Complete with a slight speech impediment, it feels like she’s channeling that same character, at least physically. She simulates an exaggerated overbite and wears veneers like she wore in Snowpiercer. While Del Toro showcases his ability for understated comedy, the scenes of Swinton are grating. Berensen, an art critic addressing an audience to discuss the work of artist and convict Moses Rosenthaler (Benicio Del Toro). The next segment, “Arts and Artists,” features Tilda Swinton as J.K.L. It’s an amusing, albeit brief, sequence that showcases Wilson’s charm. Complete with a beret, Sazerac bikes around detailing the history of every borough of the city.

Sazerac’s bicycle tour of Ennui is the film’s, and the magazine’s, first segment (each story is separated by the magazine’s theme, plus their designated number of pages). Arthur pleads, “couldn’t you add some flowers?” Sazerac responds, “No. When Herbsaint Sazerac (Owen Wilson) writes about the city of Ennui, where The French Dispatch offices reside, he talks of rats, vagrants, streetwalkers, and bodies floating in the canal.
(Bill Murray), who tries to curb the more eccentric and morbid tendencies from his writers. In The French Dispatch, an American literary magazine called The French Dispatch, formerly Picnic, reports on French art, politics, cuisine, and culture. So, that’s four good or very good films within the span of 11 years. In 2018 he returned to animation with Isle of Dogs, a funny, charming tribute to, well, dogs (say the title out loud). In 2014 we had The Grand Budapest Hotel, about a lobby boy and his concierge mentor who work in a legendary candy-colored hotel. Fox, a fun and vibrant caper, and then released his love letter to childhood misfits with Moonrise Kingdom in 2012. In 2009 he ventured into animation with Fantastic Mr. Wes Anderson has been on something of a winning streak since 2009.
