Plot – Moonrise Kingdom is a 2012 American coming-of-age comedy-drama film. Set in the 1960s on the fictional island of New Penzance, somewhere off the coast of New England, it tells the story of Sam, an orphan boy who escapes from a scouting camp to unite with his pen pal and love interest Suzy, a girl with aggressive tendencies and the oldest child in a quirky and unhappy household of two lawyers. The two runaway lovers set out to discover love, independence, and happiness, as a group of anxious parents and serious officials leave no stone unturned in search of the missing kids.

“Captain Sharp-Just for the record, 95% of all runaways return home within the first six hours. It doesn't do you any good right now. It's just a statistic.

Mr. Bishop-She doesn't have any friends.”“If your throat gets parched, stick a pebble in your mouth and suck on it. You can quench your thirst with the spit, supposedly.”
“Sam-So, what do you want to be when you grow up?
Suzy-I don't know. I want to go on adventures, I think. Not get stuck in one place. How about you?
Sam-Go on adventures, too. Not get stuck, too. Anyway, we can't predict the exact future.”“Sam-Sometimes I stick leaves on my hair. It helps cool your head down.

Suzy-I got hit in the mirror.
Sam-Really? How did that happen?
Suzy-I lost my temper at myself.”“We're in love. We just want to be together. What's wrong with that?”
“I admit we knew we'd get in trouble. That part's true. We knew people would be worried, and we still ran away, anyway. But something also happened, which we didn't do on purpose. When we first met each other, something happened to us.”
“It takes time to figure things out. It's been proven by history. All mankind makes mistakes.”
