(Read: Ranking Wes Anderson’s Characters From Best to Worst)įurther secrets were divulged when Amazon accidentally posted the synopsis for the book release of Anderson’s screenplay for The French Dispatch. (As users on Twitter later pointed out, the incorrectly-posted times were actually for Lars von Trier’s pair of Nymphomaniac films.) They were forced to confirm with The Playlist that the real runtime would be under two hours with credits. Film Twitter started mashing the ‘share’ button, and Searchlight feared rumors of such a bladder-busting length would do irreparable harm to their bottom line. IMDb reported that The French Dispatch would have a jaw-dropping runtime of over four hours, with an additional hour added to the director’s cut. In doing so they proved Cunningham’s Law, which states that the best way to get the right answer on the Internet is not to ask a question, it’s to post the wrong answer. But last week, IMDb made an error, revealing a number of undisclosed and inaccurate details. Searchlight Pictures (previously Fox Searchlight, since de-Foxed) had been trying to keep details of the anthology film a secret, sharing little more than the enormous, impressive cast. Additionally, Amazon may have accidentally shared the new movie’s release date and parts of the plot. The runtime will be one hour and 45 minutes, not four hours as IMDb originally reported. False reports about Wes Anderson’s The French Dispatch have forced Searchlight Pictures to release more details about the film.
