i just watched moonrise kindom, it was good, definately one of/if not my least favorite of wes anderson's movies though. i didnt know anything about it going in, and was pretty taken aback by the young girl main character. mostly i just hated her, a lot of her dialogue sounded so memorized and didnt seem like she meant/knew what she was saying a lot of the time. she was cute though, i just figured she was some 18-20something year old like most actors playing some younger person. but she is 12? why put her in so much make up and in a bra and shit for so long? is this guilt supposed to be part of the reaction to the movie? i dont really get why he chose to do it this way.
plus i get that he was showing off the wonder/optimism of children, verses the disaffected adults he usually has as leads. i just didn't enjoy the scenes with just the kids nearly as much as the adult ones. also he shoulda used owen wilson.
