The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar – Wes Anderson turns Roald Dahl’s tale into a living storybook. Told word-for-word from the original text, it feels like a bedtime play where every character lets you in on the secret. Painted sets, theatrical transitions, and actors juggling roles give it a handcrafted magic. With Dev Patel, Ben Kingsley, Richard Ayoade, and Ralph Fiennes, Anderson’s dry, precise rhythm turns the tale into something whimsical, artificial, and oddly timeless.
