Wes Anderson and Roman Coppola's newest creation is screening at The Moviehouse in Millerton this Friday. In classic Anderson style, the cast is star-studded, with well-versed postmodernists such as Bill Murray and Willem Defoe, but also including other pop culture icons like Michael Cera, Tom Hanks, Scarlett Johansson, and Benedict Cumberbatch. Set during the 1950s-era Cold War, the story follows a wealthy businessman, Zsa-zsa Korda, as he appoints his only daughter, a nun, as sole heir to his estate. As Korda embarks on a new enterprise, they soon become the target of scheming tycoons, foreign terrorists, and determined assassins.
