"Asteroid City", A Theatrical Piece of Art Taking Place in 1950's
A theatrical piece of art taking place back in 1950's in a town called "Asteroid City", with a chaotic ambiance. But, what actually makes me like that film is that we (the spectatorship) get to see how this theatrical work within the real life is created. We witness all the efforts and worries of the luvvies striving for giving their best performance and also trying to fully comprehend what in fact the moral of the play is. Hence, in terms of story, it did an unparalleled work thanks to the brilliant editing as well. Having 2 main stories is an uncommon situation compared to a vast majority of films. Nevertheless, it achieved to arrange the course of events of the two stories and reflect them simultaneously. We can clearly see how much labour has been put in the work by the editor.
Regarding the cinematography of the film, Robert D. Yeoman used colors very well especially in this one. He utilized both vivid and black-white colors just for aiding us in distinguishing easily to which main story we pass throughout the picture. Besides, in a few particular scenes with profuse dialogue , he fit two shots going on at the same time in one single screen,giving us the impression of no matter how far the characters stand , they talk as if they have really close distance between them.
The casting was tremendous and was plenty of numerous familiar faces. Of course, a couple of them had major roles than the others. According to the successful performances, I can tell all of the leading actors and actresses embraced the project. But, I cannot disdain the performances of the ones with minor roles such as Edward Norton, Adrien Brody, Margot Robbie, etc.
Aside from the ones that we know, new acting talents showed up. The triplet girls are literally gifted in terms of acting. The way they complete each other with their lines and mimics is stupendous and exquisite. Seemingly, they have a bright future in the industry.
This picture is may not be the best of Wes Anderson, yet it deserves a solid 7 out of 10. I suggest that it will be a good experience if you want to see it in theatres. Don't miss this one!
