Wes Anderson: “Some folks who do big things might be better off doing small things”.
The premiere of Wes Anderson’s new film The Phoenician Scheme took place in the official competition at Cannes. The film tells the story of an eccentric European billionaire, Anatole "Zsa-Zsa" Korda, and his entanglements with death, money, and his own daughter. Wes Anderson rarely gives interviews, but Nataliia Serebriakova had the chance to speak with him and his cast — Benicio del Toro, Michael Cera, and Mia Threapleton — during a roundtable conversation about the filmmaking process, the characters’ costumes, and the core ideas behind the film.
