As the tenth installment this is maximalist Wes-Anderson in style/design/memorabilia but a weaker one in story-telling. First story (Simone) is by far the most superior. Timothee's performance is actually so unsuited and out of tone especially opposite Frances McDormand lol
W.A.'s work is one of the few films of this era that can boast a so-called unique personal aesthetic, and < French Dispatch > push this feature to the extreme.
