The diva protagonist of the new film by Wes Anderson, “Asteroid City” has enchanted the Croisette: “I’m not obsessed with thinness: I’m one with few frills”

CANNES Here is Wes Anderson with his pageboy hair on a white bus, along the croisette, together with the cast of Asteroid City, basically half of Hollywood. We recognize Tom Hanks and Scarlett Johansson, Adrien Brody, Edward Norton and Matt Dillon. Some actors did not show up at the meeting with the media, others stayed at home, for example Margot Robbie, because she would be assailed by questions about her next red carpet, giving voice and body to Barbie who today is a plastic lady of middle age, she was born in 1959, revealing a doll’s age is hopefully not politically incorrect. William Dafoe, Liev Schreiber, Jeff Goldblum and one of Anderson’s historic actresses, Tilda Swinton, also in the cast, do not even meet in Cannes. There’s a little scream from paparazzi and fans, but it’s for our Marco Bellocchio who comes out of the Palace as Hollywood enters. False alarm. Shortly after, however, joyful wild screams are released and they are all for Bryan Lee Cranston, the protagonist of the award-winning series Breaking Bad, who sports a Mexican mustache just out of a spaghetti western.

And in the cinema-cinema temple, that the greatest acclaim goes to a streaming hero sounds like blasphemy. But also the applause meter for Scarlett Johansson is at a high altitude: «I play an actress, I was inspired by Bette Davis». In the film she wears short dark hair. She is an experimenter of hairstyles and dyes. She is now blonde again. In a scene of Asteroid City she remembers when she played «a tramp in a brothel». Someone spoke of affinity with certain roles of Marilyn Monroe. And Scarlett: «Well, years ago they proposed me as a sexy Marilyn-esque fairy, it’s not for me». She says that as a little girl she was not a beauty, “I’m one with few frills”, she went around with flat shoes, “the world is full of stockfish with 12 heels”. Her image of her glamor is linked to fashion campaigns, “but I’m not obsessed with thinness”.

Scarlett turns offering the bare back, mostly occupied by a tattoo with a floral motif. One meter sixty of sensuality, the actress who seduced us all in Match Point by Woody Allen is kind and speaks in his hoarse and childish voice of his character, in this bizarre and boring story, received with a sympathetic soul only by some Anglo-Saxon media. There are two narrative levels, but that’s not the problem. However, the film begins with the narrator Cranston who recounts the genesis of a theatrical show staged by Brody which will become the film we see, with protagonists (if we can speak of protagonists for an ensemble film with a scientific playing time for each star) Tom Hanks and Scarlett Johansson. Story of a group of people gathered in a remote desert location for a prize, including young astronomers and space cadets. We start from the Asteroid that impacted the Earth 3000 years before Christ. At the meeting it’s all a boring bow to the mastery of Wes Anderson, to his eccentric elegance and dandy refinements in the fairytale dimension, to the (mannerist) attention to detail and his now pastel now bright colors, to the story boards with which he accompanies the scenes to its symmetries. Scarlett thinks about it to revive spirits a little, saying with her face already in favor of a hundred photographers or perhaps more that Wes «has a theatrical approach, everything on his set is physical and tangible, an exciting experience».
