The Independent highlights its commitment to quality journalism on pressing issues like reproductive rights and climate change. It underscores the need for ground-level reporting, advocating for support to send journalists to cover diverse perspectives. The latest focus includes coverage of Michael Cera's new role in Wes Anderson's film, "The Phoenician Scheme," where he plays a tutor to Del Toro's character, highlighting the surprising synergy between Cera and Anderson despite this being their first collaboration. The publication aims to keep essential news accessible without paywalls.
When Michael Cera was announced as joining the cast of a Wes Anderson movie for the first time, the prevailing response was: Hadn't he already been in a Wes Anderson movie?
The Phoenician Scheme, which Focus Features releases Friday in theaters, stars Benicio Del Toro as the international tycoon Zsa-zsa Korda, who after a lifetime of swindling and exploiting has decided to make his daughter the heir to his estate.
Cera plays Liesl's Norwegian tutor Bjrn Lund. And because of the strong leading performances, you couldn't quite say Cera steals the show, he's certainly one of the very best things about The Phoenician Scheme.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
