Emphatically did not hate this movie.
Very similar to Wings of Fame, Fahrenheit 451, and Equilibrium.
A definite Wes Anderson thing going on there.
A few (very dry) chuckles.
Any female who agrees indicates we are compatible to tribb.
I remember the Wings of Fame, it was a bit like it yes - I think that film is on YouTube if anyone feels like tracking it down
shareI've always considered Equilibrium (2002) to be a remake of F451 but with The Matrix-style action scenes thrown in to attract a modern young audience. But yes, The Lobster reminded me of F451 too.
I suspect that Wes Anderson draws his inspirations from European art-house movies (and turns them into his own style).
I've never heard of Wings Of Fame before, so thanks for mentioning it; it looks quite interesting.
