Wes Anderson has publicly ridiculed Donald Trump's proposal for a 100% tariff on foreign-made films, arguing that it would adversely affect filmmakers rather than solve the issues facing the US film industry. During a press event at the Cannes Film Festival, Anderson questioned the practicality of implementing such tariffs while highlighting the absurdity of taking "all the money" from the film sector. In light of Trump's announcement, industry representatives have instead called for tax incentives to rejuvenate American filmmaking, pointing to successful models in countries like the UK and Australia.
"I feel it doesn't ship that way. I'm not sure I want to know the details so I'll hold off on my official answer."
"I'm not an expert in that area of economics, but I feel that means Trump is saying he's going to take all the money. And then what do we get?"
