Film Information

In his seventh full length feature, Wes Anderson (Asteroid City, The Royal Tenenbaums), with co-writer Roman Coppola, constructs a heartfelt fantasy of young love, an adult re-imagining of the moment in adolescence when that bond is uncomplicated and pure, perfect and forever.

Set on an island off the coast of New England in the summer of 1965, Moonrise Kingdom tells the story of two twelve-year-olds who fall in love, make a secret pact, and run away together into the wilderness. As various authorities try to hunt them down, a violent storm is brewing off-shore — and the peaceful island community is turned upside down in more ways than anyone can handle.

Reviews

"Anderson always fills his films with colors, never garish but usually definite and active... It is a comfortable canvas to look at, so pretty that it helps establish the feeling of magical realism." – Roger Ebert

"There is elegance and formal brilliance in Moonrise Kingdom, as well as a lot of gentle, winning comedy." – The Guardian
