Montclair Film Festival Presents – The French Dispatch

About Montclair Film Festival Presents – The French Dispatch

Wes Anderson (THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS, THE LIFE AQUATIC WITH STEVE ZISSOU) has earned a reputation as one of the cinema’s most distinctive visual stylists. In his new film THE FRENCH DISPATCH, Anderson has created a love letter to journalists, following the exploits of a band of writers, editors, and essayists working to publish The French Dispatch, a fictional twentieth century magazine, published in a fictional French city.

The film, structured as a collection of stories from the magazine, is at once delightful and thoughtful, as interested in the history of cinema as it is the magazine itself, a perfect marriage of ideas and visual storytelling. Featuring an all-star cast at the top of its game, THE FRENCH DISPATCH is a wonderful, welcome return to the movies. Montclair Film is proud to present THE FRENCH DISPATCH as the Opening Film of the 10th Annual Montclair Film Festival.

This screening is co-presented with Investors Bank.
