We interrupt your regularly scheduled Impossible Mission with a bonus Scheme!
After the unexpectedly contentious response to 2023&#8217;s Asteroid City, Anderson returns with a simple, crowd-pleasing comedy about the relationship between an industrialist who has survived multiple assassination attempts and his estranged daughter who is studying to become a nun.
Join Nick and Scott as they return to the world of Wes Anderson with his latest film to hit theaters: 2025&#8217;s THE PHOENICIAN SCHEME!
