Overview

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.

Viewing Notes

Just felt like more of the same from Wes Anderson… until I pictured the two kids as younger versions of Larry Gopnik and his neighbor/lust object in A Serious Man and their unacknowledged summer camp adventures.  Then the movie was awesome.  Still - not all that great, though.
