    Max Fischer, and the film where the whole style clicks into place.

  3. 2001

    The Royal Tenenbaums

    A flop that has quietly become many people's favourite.

    An anthology of magazine articles. The most formally dense thing he has made.

  11. 2023

    Asteroid City

    1h 45m

    A play within a television programme within a film. Divisive even among devotees.

  12. 2025
