Moonrise Kingdom

Moonrise Kingdom

Director: Wes Anderson

Cast: Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton

Synopsis: 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.

Critics: “Moonrise Kingdom" breezes along with a beautifully coordinated admixture of droll humour, deadpan and slapstick. - Moonrise Kingdom

- Films that can charm kids and adults in equal measure are rare. This is one of them. - Daily Star

- Moonrise Kingdom remains - for the most part - a gem of a film, and clear indication that Wes Anderson is only getting better with age. - ScreenRant

Award/Nominations: The movie has already won Best Feature at the Gotham Awards. It has also been nominated at the Satellite Awards and Independent Spirit Awards. It was also in the running for the Palme D’Or at the Cannes Film Festival earlier this year.
