  I I am a Wes Anderson fan, and you need to be to enjoy this movie. It is visually so rich and dense that I could watch it several times and not see everything that is happening in some of the complex scenes where the trolley moves the camera across several adjacent rooms. Same applies to the dialogue which is fast and constant. I loved the references to Jacque Tatie, Godard, and other French film makers and to the various New Yorker writers who are the inspiration of the reporters here. My problem is that I am only moderately proficient at the French language so at times I was not able to keep up. This was made more difficult because when I ordered it and it started it was all in French. I did not order it in French and did not realize until others told me after that the original is in French and English and I could have changed the language setting and seen it this way. Live and learn I suppose. Still, I understood most of it and thoroughly enjoyed it.
