REVIEW by Christofer J. Garcia :

"Let me get it out of the way - Moonrise Kingdom is one of my favorite film. From the very beginning, Indian Summer (L'été indien) made me feel as if I was watching what would happen is Wes Anderson had been French (well, Quebecois...) and decided to make a film about a tortured childhood saved by another tortured childhood. Mike learns that he is adopted and is actually a Micmac and has to go into the forest to explore his heritage. Mirka is a romantic artist whose parent's divorce is crashing her world down around her. This is so Andersonian as to be nearly criminal, but director Yanie Dupont-Hebert manages to make so much more commentary in her piece that it feels more like the kind of cinema you'd see in a Cineclub of the 1960s and 70s. Mike has to reconnect with his roots, but has no clue what that means beyond the Westerns he's such a gigantic fan of. Mirka wants to give in to love fully, but is too young to truly understand what that means. It is a difficult position both these children are in, and they see their recent circumstances as the call to grow-up, but really, it's just a difficult moment they need to get through as children. That is a theme much more complex than anything Anderson has ever tackled, and it is so well-done, that I would say the next disaffected youth film I see is Dupont-Herbertian."
