Everybody knows whatWes Andersonmovies are like. An assortment of TikTok tributes and AI atrocities all reflect the stereotypical hallmarks of Anderson’s style: symmetrical compositions, mannered dialogue, deadpan actors, and a general sense of continental whimsy embodied byAlexandre Desplat’s “Obituary”, which scored the opening scene ofThe French Dispatch. WhileAI art is a scourge, the TikTok trend is harmless; besides, it’s heartening to see a great filmmaker like Anderson get increased attention (which will hopefully help the box office of his upcomingAsteroid City)....
