It's been ages since I've been excited to revisit the heightened, stylized cinematic world of Wes Anderson, but Moonrise Kingdom looks like a return to form for the director. His first live-action film since 2007's The Darjeeling Limited, the story follows a vintage New England town thrown into upheaval after two young lovers(Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward) run away together.
After yesterday's clip featuring Tilda Swinton, Edward Norton, and Bruce Willis, today brings two very different ones. The first has Bob Balaban taking us through a tour of New Penzance, channeling Steve Zissou the whole way. The second features Jason Schwartzman as Cousin Ben, a scout trooper leader who takes his authority a little too seriously as he talks to the runaways about their impending marriage.
Moonrise Kingdom will open the Cannes Film Festival and be In Competition before opening May 25th....
