Emmy winner Jake Hamilton travels to the 65th Cannes Film Festival to talk with the stars of the festival’s opening film, MOONRISE KINGDOM — director Wes Anderson, Edward Norton, Jason Schwartzman, Kara Hayward and Jared Gilman — only on JAKE’S TAKES!
Set on an island off the coast of New England in the summer of 1965, MOONRISE KINGDOM tells the story of two 12-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 every which way. Bruce Willis plays the local sheriff, Captain Sharp. Edward Norton is a Khaki Scout troop leader, Scout Master Ward. Bill Murray and Frances McDormand portray the young girl’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Bishop. The cast also includes Tilda Swinton, Jason Schwartzman, and Bob Balaban; and introduces Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward as Sam and Suzy, the boy and girl.
Jake Hamilton is an American film critic and documentary producer. Formerly a teen film critic for the Houston Chronicle and the HoustonPBS talk show The After Party, he now hosts the Emmy-nominated film review segment Jake's Takes, produced by KRIV-TV (FOX Houston).
