Trailer: Wes Anderson’s Moonrise Kingdom

Few filmmakers get me as excited as Wes Anderson. I know there are many out there who tire of his schtick, but none can argue that he’s not a unique voice in modern cinema. And his new one looks like a winner.

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. Bruce Willis plays the local sheriff. Edward Norton is a Khaki Scout troop leader. Bill Murray and Frances McDormand portray the young girl’s parents. The cast also includes Tilda Swinton, Jason Schwartzman, and Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward as the boy and girl.

You can watch the trailer in HD at Apple.com. Moonrise Kingdom opens May 25th.

I was just about to grow tired of his schtick but with a cast like that, I think I’ll wait until after this one to be over Wes Anderson.
