Filmed in coastal Rhode Island – Jamestown, mainly – Moonrise Kingdom features a pair of twelve-year old runaways fleeing the boring, adult-constructed worlds set up for them in the puritan sixties. Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward play the leads in a heavily stylized film that’s part adventure story, part swoony romantic drama. Moonrise Kingdom really centers around the two characters, keeping the adults at the periphery (even though the adults include Frances McDormand and Bruce Willis and Tilda Swinton). The PG-13 film will be shown on the lawn adjacent to the Dalrymple Boathouse, across from Carousel Village.
