Cannes: Unburdened of his films' usual depth, but saddled with twice their texture, Anderson's latest can't help but feel like a step down from the heavenly "Asteroid City."

Featuring Benicio Del Toro, Michael Cera, Scarlett Johansson and many more stars, the director's latest farce The Phoenician Scheme has premiered at Cannes – and it's daft but fun.

The actor plays an industrialist who tries to reconnect with his estranged daughter in this competition entry co-starring Mia Threapleton, Michael Cera, Jeffrey Wright, Tom Hanks and Scarlett Johansson.
