Asteroid City - FILM REVIEW
Ben Kenigsburg, rogerebert.com
"The trailer made "Asteroid City" look like Anderson's version of an atomic-age alien-invasion picture, but that's not quite right. In a black-and-white intro, a host (Bryan Cranston) informs viewers that they will be watching a rehearsal for a play called "Asteroid City," set in a fictional American town. This allows Anderson to pay homage not just to "The War of the Worlds," "Invaders From Mars," and their ilk but to another, almost opposite mode of storytelling in the 1950s: the work of the Actors Studio on Broadway."
