Product description

Product Description

RUSHMORE is the story of a gifted, rebellious teenager named Max Fischer (Jason Schwartzman), a 10th grader at elite Rushmore Academy. Editor of the school newspaper, captain or president of innumerable clubs and societies, Max is also one of the worst students in the school, and the threat of expulsion hangs permanently over his head. Max's world is rocked when he falls for elegant 1st grade teacher Miss Cross (Olivia Williams) and he plans to erect an aquarium in her honor -- then finds himself competing for her affections with his friend, steel tycoon Mr. Blume (Bill Murray), the wealthy father of two of his classmates.

鶹.ca

Wes Anderson's follow-up to the quirky Bottle Rocket is a wonderfully unorthodox coming-of-age story that ranks with Harold and Maude and The Graduate in the pantheon of timeless cult classics. Jason Schwartzman (son of Talia Shire and nephew of Francis Coppola) stars as Max Fischer, a 15-year-old attending the prestigious Rushmore Academy on scholarship, where he's failing all of his classes but is the superstar of the school's extracurricular activities (head of the drama club, the beekeeper club, the fencing club...). Possessing boundless confidence and chutzpah, as well as an aura of authority he seems to have been born with, Max finds two unlikely soulmates in his permutations at Rushmore: industrial magnate and Rushmore alumnus Herman Blume (Bill Murray) and first-grade teacher Rosemary Cross (Olivia Williams). His alliance with Blume and crush on Miss Cross, however, are thrown out of kilter by his expulsion from Rushmore, and a budding romance between the two adults that threatens Max's own designs on the lovely schoolteacher.

Never stooping to sentimentality or schmaltz, Anderson and cowriter Owen Wilson have fashioned a wickedly intelligent and wildly funny tale of young adulthood that hits all the right notes in its mix of melancholy and optimism. As played by Schwartzman, Max is both immediately endearing and ferociously irritating: smarter than all the adults around him, with little sense of his shortcomings, he's an unstoppable dynamo who commands grudging respect despite his outlandish projects (including a school play about Vietnam). Murray, as the tycoon who determinedly wages war with Max for the affections of Miss Cross, is a revelation of middle-aged resignation. Disgusted with his family, his life, and himself, he's turned around by both Max's antagonism and Miss Cross's love. Williams is equally affecting as the teacher who still carries a torch for her dead husband, and the superb supporting cast also includes Seymour Cassel as Max's barber father, Brian Cox as the frustrated headmaster of Rushmore, and a hilarious Mason Gamble as Max's young charge. Put this one on your shelf of modern masterpieces. --Mark Englehart

    4.0 out of 5 stars An un-orthodox go-getter tries to get the girl

    This movie is under-rated, it has many funny moments. An unusual teenager who has many talents but untalented at the same time competes for the affection of an older woman. His competitor, played by Bill Murry is very funny trying to one up the young lad at every turn.This film reminds me of other Bill Murry films like the Royal Tenenbaums its played with the same kind of flair. Deadpan and dry humour. Unusual savoir faire.

    3.0 out of 5 stars My review of rushmore
    Reviewed in Canada on April 27, 2004
    Max is a dedicated student, putting effort into all after school activies. However his world is turned upside down by the arrival of a new female teacher. In which he and his new friend (bill murray) both fall for and compete for her affection.
    I think the main theme to this movie is obsession, as max moves from one to another. The other theme could be commitment, because it shows the amount of effort max puts in to everything he does and tries to see it to the end.
    I think it was acted out well, in showing the tourment each character was put through. I believe the soundtrack helped to movie progress, helping to emphase the mood within the scene.
    I think it was a typically enjoyable movie in which has an originality to it, yet the story of trying to win over love has been done before. The style was very different, although it ran smoothly, it wasnt predicable as you weren't quite sure how it would end. I think the film was a success, would deffinatley recommend it to others to watch. The only thing I wished to see more of was the vengeful competition between max and his friend.

    avec wes Anderson ce sont des films OVNI le miracle répété
    celui-ci le second 1998 apres bottle rocket ( assez moyen ) est aussi bon que le dernier" Moonrise Kingdom".. ,la même poésie , déjà , l'iventivité de tout instant ,la tendresse pour les personnages.
    Certains dirons que c'est le Tarantino pour les bobosbisounours mais moi j''aime ces histoires décalées de surdoués de décalés justement de familles un peu barjots.
    bref à ce prix achetez vous du bonheur !
    et la famille Tannenbaum ,(2001 ) et à bord du Darjeeling Limited (2007) sont également à conseiller très vivement quoique assez ,mais pas trop délirants
    quant à la vie aquatique (2004 ) bof j'ai trouvé que le film avait pris l'eau ! mais c'est bien du Wes Anderson et du Bill Murray !
    Bref wes Anderson c'est du Tim burton pour "Happy few "

    Un clásico que no debe faltar en la cineteca de cualquier fan de Wes Anderson. No es de sus películas más aclamadas, sin embargo el guión ofrece una visión original y diferente de uno de los géneros más explotados del cine estadounidense: la vida en el instituto. Fresca y divertida, con actores geniales y una banda sonora deliciosa. El DVD incluye varios idiomas y subtítulos.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Highschool-Film mal anders... und zwar top!
    Reviewed in Germany on January 15, 2004

    ‚Rushmore' war für mich eine wirklich große Überraschung! Ich bin damals nur mit in's Kino gegangen, weil ich sowieso gerade nichts Besseres vorhatte- ich hatte vorher noch so rein gar nichts von diesem Film gehört, und unter ‚intelligentem Highschoolfilm konnte ich mir auch nichts vorstellen. Wie auch immer, dieser Film macht einen Heidenspaß, und es wäre mein Pech gewesen, wenn ich ihn verpaßt hätte.
    Man kann wahrscheinlich sagen, daß dies ein Highschool-Film ist, schließlich geht es um einen Jungen, der auf der Highschool ist- aber da hören Gemeinsamkeiten mit Filmen wie ‚Eine oder Keine' und wie sie alle heißen auch schon auf. Der Film lebt von seinen hervorragenden Schauspielern (allen vorneweg natürlich Bill Murray- ich bin kein Fan von ihm, aber hier ist er wirklich genial- aber auch die anderen Haupt- und Nebendarsteller brauchen sich keineswegs zu verstecken), gestochen scharfen Dialogen und von seinem stets feinen, teilweise scharfen oder auch schwarzen Humor, der sich wie ein roter Faden durch den Film zieht. Da das Ganze jedoch eher nüchtern als übertrieben gefilmt ist und die Pointen ohne Vorankündigung kommen, kann es durchaus passieren, daß man sich diesen Film anschaut und es einem tatsächlich entgeht, was man für ein Juwel vor der Nase hat- zumindest, wenn man nicht so interessiert dabei ist. Anhänger von Brachialkomödien à la ‚Ey Mann wo ist mein Auto' oder ‚Dumm und Dümmer' sollten von diesem Film bitte die Finger lassen! Jeder andere, der Sinn für feinen und intelligenten Witz hat und etwas skurrile Gestalten mag, wird sich wirklich köstlich amüsieren- mein Wort drauf. Schade nur, daß dieser Film hier in Deutschland nicht so viel Aufmerksamkeit erregt hat, dadurch ist Vielen eine clevere und alles in allem wirklich sehr gute Komödie entgangen.
