Movie Reviews

• “[It] is a beguiling curio, and one that no other filmmaker could have created (…) Every moment is graced by Anderson’s love for the written word and the oddball characters who dedicate their professional lives to it” David Rooney: The Hollywood Reporter 

• “It’s best, maybe, to think of ‘The French Dispatch’ as a series of exquisite miniatures – amusing, meticulously designed and impeccably executed, but maybe not adding up to much more than the sum of their parts” Steve Pond: The Wrap 

• “This charming sketchbook of stories about American expatriates in France delivers a welcome salute to storytelling as a way to make sense of the world” Eric Kohn: IndieWire
