Brady Cooper and Amy Adams are not the stars of their respective movies. They're both third billing. You should list Philip Seymour Hoffman for "the Master," as the co-star (Phoenix) has already been used, Hoffman is the title character, and Anderson himself has called Hoffman his "muse." Should probably use Cooper Hoffman too, for Licorice Pizza, but Alana Haim would be good. Bradley Cooper is barely in that movie. Nonetheless, very glad you made this quiz. Anderson is my favorite living director. (Come back, Billy Wilder!)
