Moonrise Kingdom Soundtrack - An mixed bag of tracks that works together surprisingly well
22 Jun 2012
Format:Audio CD
Moonrise Kingdom is a delightful, visually quirky film from Wes Anderson that looks at the lives of dysfunctional people through the eyes of two runaway children. The use of music throughout is key to the feel of the film, and helps to drive the narrative and underscore the emotional impact with a series of well chosen pieces that fit it perfectly. There is quite a mixed bag, with several classical pieces, especially works by Britten which are important to the film's plot, and a few tracks from Hank Williams. The mix of classical and classic country shouldn't work, but it does, and this CD provides a thoroughly enjoyable listening experience. As with all great soundtracks it works well in isolation from the film, and there is plenty of great music to enjoy here, but the most benefit will be for those who have seen the film, where particular tracks will evoke memories of particular scenes and will be almost guaranteed to raise a smile. 5 stars for this eclectic mix.

After watching the movie I realized how much I had enjoyed the soundtrack. This is not a soundtrack for all occasions as it is pretty quirky (what else would you expect from a Wes Anderson film) but it certainly has a place in my life. The Hank Williams tracks bring a smile to my face and I didn't realize how much I loved Brittens' Playful Pizzicato, until I heard it again.
This disc arrived around my 20th wedding anniversary, and we played it in the car during a day out to celebrate, so it will always have a fond linked memory to it

Unfortunately, it was not possible for us to hear it in English, only German. We tried for ages on our television to find
English, but the report came back that this was impossible. Not exactly these words but something like it. My daughter at present is living in German so decided to keep it and send it onto her. I will wait now until it is in the shops in English.
Moonrise Kingdom - was fantastic and enjoyed very much
