Max Fischer. Rushmore Academy. The class of ’01. Wes Anderson’s dazzling second film follows tenth grader and the self-described king of Rushmore prep school, Max (Jason Schwartzman) as he’s put on academic probation and faces expulsion, meanwhile making a play for a beautiful first-grade teacher (Olivia Williams) and forming an unlikely friendship with a melancholy millionaire (Bill Murray). Set to a soundtrack of classic British Invasion songs, Rushmore captures the pain and exuberance of adolescence with wit, feeling, and real panache.
Get ready for The Phoenician Scheme (released Fri 23 May) with back-to-back screenings, and a whimsical quiz, exploring the wonderful world of Wes Anderson.
