Went to Wes Anderson's new film "Asteroid City" this afternoon (5pm show). Small crowd there at the Galaxy (the only theatre in town playing it so it is probably ending very soon). Mike Rollo and Amber were there so we had a nice after movie chat in the parking lot. I liked the movie, even though it was sort of an "in the moment" sort of thing where I stopped really thinking about the path of the story or the characters. I just sat and enjoyed it. I feel inspired to write and might dive into the next puppet screenplay in the next few days as a result.
Image attached above. This was one of a small number of split screen images that Anderson created. It somewhat bothered me that he needed to adjust the vertical position of the image to get the characters to exactly match (if eyelines are off, the split screen feels disconnected). This resulted in edges of the frame appearing on either the top or the bottom of the frame with one of the characters.
