The first, 'The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar,' premiered at the Venice Film Festival this week.
The Big Picture Wes Anderson is back at the Venice Film Festival with his Netflix short film The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar. However, the acclaimed director has now confirmed that this project is just the beginning of a larger anthology that will feature three additional short films: The Swan, Poison and The Ratcatcher.
"There’s another one that’s in the Henry Sugar collection that’s called The Swan, we’ve done that with Rupert Friend," Anderson said. "We did a very old one called Poison, which is one I always loved…and then we’ve also done a very, very strange one called Ratcatcher, which is from a book called Claud’s Dog, a kind of obscure Dahl book set in the Eastern part of England. It’s a really rural one, it’s a peculiar story. And they’re all strange.
