Just over a year ago, the unusual American director delivered his last perfectly symmetrical, delightfully eccentric drama, the brisk ensemble work The French Dispatch – Now, he’s ready to return with another heartwarming item. Hollywood Reporter has been billed as “a poetic meditation on the meaning of life as it tells the story of and around a fictional American desert town 1955 and its Junior Stargazer convention, which brings together students and parents from across the country for academic competition, break and fun, comedy, drama, romance, and more.” So does Wes Anderson, so far.
