You could scrape the titles off the front of 'Asteroid City' and still peg it as a Wes Anderson joint. At this point, only a newbie could fail to identify Anderson's tropes, fetishes and signature camera moves. Throw 20+ A-list actors into a confined, defined space, in this case, a retro 50's amusement park-tourist trap somewhere in the American Southwest in the middle of the 20 th century.
