Another beautifully elaborate little piece from Wes Anderson, and one that I'd been meaning to catch up with for a number of years. Arguably there's nothing terribly unexpected here, as two preternaturally mannered young misfits go on the run together in 1960s New England and are pursued by a bunch of Anderson regulars. It's a joy, though, with the sort of warmth and playfulness the director seems to be making his stock in trade these days. It's visually beautiful, and the performances are appealingly quirky, with Edward Norton's sympathetic scoutmaster a particular delight. Perfect viewing for a cosy Sunday evening.
