I like this tune when commenting on "Yuesheng Kingdom" ! Moonrise Kingdom is definitely the TOP10 of my list in 2012. This children's adult fairy tale, under the skillful command of Wes Anderson, is absurd and serious, capricious and sophisticated, beautiful and cruel, just like the musical instruments in a symphony. Thick, sad and warm melody. In my eyes, this is a film that seems shallow but profound. In other words, it spreads out in two dimensions, and does not hinder each other.
Try to look at love from the perspective of childhood and the adult world from the perspective of children, and you will find that everything in this movie is so taken for granted. Love is such bravery, perseverance and ignorance in the imagination of young people. In the eyes of adults, the ridiculous and ridiculous children are actually very serious and serious to embrace the world according to their own understanding. In the eyes of children, it is the adults who are strong in the outside world and in the middle of the game, who are stupid and not fun. The sheriff likes married women, the lawyer and his wife have different dreams, the math teacher is unwilling, and the social worker is ruthless. The nature of the adult world is actually ridiculous and chaotic. They are just better at hiding their ears and stealing bells. And all this is actually seen in the eyes of children. Children can understand adults and children, but adults cannot understand children, and it is difficult for them to understand each other. Little children lack the power to change, and the only option is to elope with each other.
On the way to elope, there were more accidents. The girl was caught and went home, the puppy was killed, the team was injured, and the boy was shocked. But this pair of Wes Anderson's Bonnie and Clyde used their own righteousness to make these adults. They are touched, so as to assume the responsibilities they should bear. The world is still being pushed by the adults. The battalion commander led the Boy Scouts to escape, the sheriff adopted the boy, and the girl’s mother decided to cut off the affair. This pair of problem teenagers also got the acquiescence of the adults, and there is no need to go desperately anymore. This ending is pleasant and satisfying, but thinking about the future of the children, there is so little anxiety and sadness.
Moonrise Kingdom’s mirroring, editing, art, dialogue, and soundtrack all have many highlights and cute points. Orange-red rural houses, scarab earrings, Noah’s Ark’s small opera, girl’s purple eyeliner, Boy Scout uniform, complicated outdoor toilet drainage system, fairy tale novel with exquisite content and cover. It's a very interesting process, so let's savour it when you watch it again.
Wes Anderson is one of my favorite directors. His works have a distinctive style, the details are supreme, and the information is rich. In addition to the literary youth, his fans also include: detail control, narcissistic patients, escapism family, British culture Obsessed with the crowd, humorous patients, and idealists and romantics who value feelings. So this must be a director who cannot reach the public. But adults, who are tired in the mundane world, can also try to enter the dream created by Anderson and relive that stupid, lovely, sacred childhood that we once had?
