IMDb Trailer

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.

Editor's Notes

Note

A-Tier Criterion 4K. Wes Anderson's New England romance. Available in the Wes Anderson Archive box set or as a standalone Criterion 4K. The box set is divisive, with some people calling it an ugly eyesore and others loving it at 50% off. The Royal Tenenbaums disc in the set has a known issue during the cemetery scene that Criterion will replace.
