The Phoenician Scheme

The latest from auteur Wes Anderson, The Phoenician Scheme tells the story of a family and a family business.

Starring Benicio del Toro as Zsa-zsa Korda, one of the richest men in Europe, Mia Threapleton as his daughter/a nun Liesl, and Michael Cera as their tutor Bjorn. With Riz Ahmed, Tom Hanks, Bryan Cranston, Mathieu Amalric, Richard Ayoade, Jeffrey Wright, Scarlett Johansson, Benedict Cumberbatch, Rupert Friend, and Hope Davis.

Exclusive Wes Anderson themed cocktail “The Phoenician Dream” is now available at Take 3 Wine Bar & Café during its operational hours (Thursday–Sunday). Prepared with Four Roses Bourbon, refreshing pomegranate lemonade, an ooze of grenadine, topped with seltzer and a cherry, this drink is sure to sell out. Grab one (or three!) now!

"His tender, witty, wondrous The Phoenician Scheme is the most Andersonian Anderson film to date—but then again, they all are, and that’s the fun of them."
Robbie Collin, The Telegraph
"In many ways the heart of Anderson’s film… Threapleton is so good in part because you can see the conflict play out on her face, even as she delivers Anderson’s idiosyncratic dialogue with rhythmic perfection. She is also just fantastically cool, rocking a habit like a Met Gala look."
Esther Zuckerman, The Daily Beast
