Entertaining but really depressing. Not just the cancer aspect but the truly decrepit moral compass of all the adults and the complete negligence and abuse endured by the children. I hope people don’t think anything about the dynamics of the characters is normal.

Watching Wes Anderson’s decline into first college film level cringe is tragic. He used to make good films with fast but pleasurable dialogue pacing and cogent plots. Emphasis on plot. His American experimental theatre/French new wave/ingmar Bergman shtick is exhausting and does nothing for my senses. Films are supposed to be entertaining. I shouldn’t have to watch a film ironically to enjoy it like 90% of the criterion collections films he seems to glean inspiration from. Let’s be honest.
