Trivia:

This is the first Wes Anderson film to be shot in the 1.85:1 ratio since Bottle Rocket (1996), and also the first to be shot on 16mm film.

Goofs:

Continuity: When Sam is eating in Captain Sharp's trailer, the serving fork changes positions in the frying pan on the table and the top layer of bread on the sandwich changes position.

Quotes:

Sam:Why do you always use binoculars?
Suzy:It helps me see things closer. Even if they're not very far away. I pretend it's my magic power.
Sam:That sounds like poetry. Poems don't always have to rhyme, you know. They're just supposed to be creative.

Movie Connections:

References Melody (1971)

Soundtrack:

Khaki Scout Marches (Camp Ivanhoe Medley)

Anderson's finest yet?

In the past, Anderson has whirled us from melancholy dreamscapes set deep below the Pacific to tales of inter-generation betrayals in the name of love, from doomed romances in Paris hotels to deliriously bizarre animal revolutions in the English countryside. But for all the retro-stylings his films so proudly wear, Moonrise Kingdom is Anderson's first period piece - a tender love story set in the sepia-soaked sixties of Anderson's youth that have worked their influence into every one of his movies. It is fitting that this film is his most childlike - not in any way any simpler than his other films (as anyone with an accurate memory of childhood will remember all it's complexities; the way each trivial thing became a nest of thorns), but an accurate and deeply heartfelt depiction of childhood. It is not aiming to be as crushingly dramatic as Life Aquatic or as deeply tragic as Hotel Chevalier, because that wouldn't be appropriate for the story it's trying to tell. Instead, while still bearing Anderson's still surprising streak of black humour (some acts of violence really catch you off-guard; then again, children are violent so hats off Wes), it is largely concerned with the dramas and tragedies of youth. Yes, it is less ambitious than say The Life Aquatic but it also has none of the flaws that that film does (and believe me, I am a massive Steve Zissou fan). Instead, it is perfectly executed, wonderfully acted poignant beauty, with fantastic performances across the board (especially from newcomers Gilman and Hayward). This, while not his most ambitious, is certainly Anderson's most perfect work so far. You owe it to yourself to see this movie.
