The French Dispatch Exhibition of sets, models, costumes in props in London - Part 2...

Here are more costumes and props from Wes Anderson's new movie, The French Dispatch, on display at a temporary exhibition and photographed at the 180 Studios on the Strand, London on October 25, 2021. The anthology film tells a number of stories about the people, who work at the French outpost of an American newspaper (inspired by The New Yorker magazine), and the subjects they write about. This collection of screen-used gems are from 'The Concrete Masterpiece' story, about a mentally disturbed artist serving a prison sentence for murder.

In the film, Tilda Swinton narrates the story as 'J.K.L. Berensen', a writer and lecturer, inspired by the famous writer/editor and "art talker", Rosamund Bernier.

Milena Canonero was Costumer Designer on the feature and you can also see her Oscar-winning costumes from The Grand Budapest Hotel.

Wes Anderson certainly loves using miniature models in his films, and these planes that split in half to reveal a cross section of the passengers, crew and cargo within, is no exception.
