If there was one place where young romance truly exists, it would be through the lens of the ever talented Wes Anderson. I have never seen such pure young love in this time or maybe because I haven't heard of any yet. As a huge fan of Wes Anderson works, his movies have never failed to spark much interest and love for me. So far, not yet. I just got off watching Moonrise Kingdom and i must say it is one of the most original young love story i have ever seen. Maybe not original because some parts of the movie contain familiar elements of randomness (usually found in comedies) and a bit of Bollywood play where you find his characters dancing to the background music in most of his films. But, these familiar elements are very rare for movies nowadays. Directors now tend to focus on cutting edge graphics and angles which are very one focus concentrating either on sex parts, explosions, 'clever' hollow dialogues and the very often predictable man-on-man fist punching scenes. With that said, i guess the original essence of this movie in the context of classic romance living in the 21st century is somewhat valid.Well, at least to me. Now I only wonder whether are there such stories living in this time of age. If you haven't watched it yet, torrent it! Before i jet, here are some really cute pics i stumbled on tumblr from fans alike.
