French Dispatch Timothee Chalamet Naked With Frances Mcdormand

In this particular “French Dispatch” story, McDormand plays the straight-faced journalist Lucinda Krementz and Chalamet stars as the quirky student activist Zeffirelli. Lucinda and Zeffirelli’s relationship takes unexpected turns as the journalist profiles the exploits of the activist. In his B+ review of “The French Dispatch” out of Cannes, IndieWire chief critic Eric Kohn singled out this segment of the film as one of its most memorable.

“It’s the McDormand/Chalamet segment that allows Anderson to bring much grander ambitions to bear, as he maps out the story of student revolutionaries in smoke-filled bars with such overt early Godard overtones it’s a wonder he doesn’t include a reference to the children of Marx and Coca-Cola,” Kohn writes. “However, he does give us Chalamet’s Zeferelli in a bizarre love triangle with an older woman and the radical French motorcyclist (Lyna Khoudri) whose ideology doesn’t quite line up with his own.” Related ‘Dune: Part Two’ Wraps, Timothée Chalamet Shares Set Photo Celebrating Sequel ‘Dune: Part Two’ First Look: Timothée Chalamet Is Back as Paul Atreides Related 7 New Netflix Shows in October 2022 – and the Best Reasons to Watch Oscars 2023: Remarkable Transformations Lead the Way in Makeup and Hairstyling
Kohn continues, “The sight of the pair mounted on her bike, speeding upward through a black abyss, is one of the most lyrical, even haunting, images in Anderson’s repertoire; it evokes the constant sense of mystery and journeying to exotic destinations, both real and imagined, that often exist at the center of his work.” Elsewhere in his review, Kohn writes of the film, “It’s hard to imagine another living filmmaker with a style as instantly recognizable as Wes Anderson, a feat that works against him no matter how expansive his approach. ‘The French Dispatch’ doubles down on it, with a freewheeling triptych of stories that make the case for his appeal by amplifying it.” “The French Dispatch” opens in theaters October 22 from Searchlight Pictures. The date happens to be the same day Warner Bros. is opening another Chalamet vehicle, “Dune.” Watch the first clip from Anderson’s latest below.
