Moonrise Kingdom (Wes Anderson)

Funny, charming movie without an ounce of cynicism or saccharine. I enjoyed every moment of this love story between two misfits who find each other on the Island of New Penzance and, using the Sam's skills as a Khaki Scout, establish a makeshift hideaway they call Moonrise Kingdom. Their short escape doesn't last long, and yet their strong bonds of affection eventually help them return to family and friends.

Fine, nearly flawless film.

Highly recommend.
