ANDERSON vs. ANDERSON – Jon and Fil visit Asteroid City

On this special Bonus Episode of The Pod Charles Cinecast, presented by The Prince Charles Cinema, our hosts Jonathan Foster and Fil Freitas reignite the rivalry, and once again ask the ultimate question, "Are you an Anderson Guy, or an Anderson Guy?"

That's right! With a new Wes Anderson film now out, Anderson vs. Anderson is back, with the 11th feature from the visionary director – ASTEROID CITY. Once again, we've got an ensemble cast, with Jason Schwartzman leading the charge, alongside Wes Anderson regulars, Scarlett Johansson, Edward Norton, Adrian Brody, Liev Schreiber, Jeffery Wright, Tony Revolori, Bob Balaban, Bryan Cranston, Tilda Swinton and Jeff Goldblum. Plus, we see the additions of Margot Robbie, Matt Dillon, Maya Hawke, Hong Chau, Steve Carell, and Tom "freaking" Hanks to the cast of characters in the idiosyncratic director's first foray into sci-fi.

Full of all the camera tricks and movements, centre framed shots, visual effects, pastel colours, unique wardrobe, stunning set design, whimsical music and stories, stop-motion, swapping between colour and black and white, and the new addition of a play set within a movie – it's probably the most Wes Anderson Wes Anderson movie yet! But is that a good thing?

Join us, as we once again crack into the Twee world of Wes Anderson for his latest delights! And just maybe, in the near future, we will finally dip our toes into Paul Thomas Anderson's first film, HARD EIGHT, because we never did it in the original run, and the director doesn't seem to have anything new in store for us any time soon.
