Asteroid City

“"You can't wake up if you don't fall asleep"”

Augie Steenbeck (Jason Schwartzman) wants to get his son and three daughters through a Junior Stargazer convention in the Southwestern desert in 1955, and to tell them their mother has died. Wes Anderson frames the town as a stage play, with Midge Campbell (Scarlett Johansson) and Stanley Zak (Tom Hanks) among those stuck there. The motel's pastel cabins sit in a row under the sky, and the atomic test sites lie out past the edge of town.
