Moonrise Kingdom

Hey there, boys and girls of all ages. What kind of bird are you? Take your time thinking up the answer to that question because the answer plays heavily into our next great contest!

Set on an island off the coast of New England in the summer of 1965, Moonrise Kingdom tells the story of two twelve-year-olds who fall in love, make a secret pact, and run away together into the wilderness. As various authorities try to hunt them down, a violent storm is brewing off-shore — and the peaceful island community is turned upside down in more ways than anyone can handle. Bruce Willis plays the local sheriff. Edward Norton is a Khaki Scout troop leader. Bill Murray and Frances McDormand portray the young girl’s parents. The cast also includes Tilda Swinton, Jason Schwartzman, and Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward as the boy and girl.

For your chance to win, simply email contest@dorkshelf.com with MOONRISE KINGDOM in the subject line. Answer the question “What kind of bird are you?” in the email, and please provide us with a mailing address in case you win. (Your name will not be added to any mailing lists.) Please only one entry per person/household. For additional chances to win, like the contest announcement on our Facebook page and/or re-Tweet the announcement from our Twitter! Deadline for entries is 11:59pm on Sunday, May 20th.

Moonrise Kingdom opens in Toronto on Friday, June 1st, but here’s a couple of clips to whet your appetite. And as always, stay tuned to Dork Shelf for more great contests and giveaways!
