At first glance, Max Fischer could be clearly identified as one of Rushmore's prized whiz students. He is an activity jock, a member of a plenty number of clubs: fencing, director of school plays, you name it. But in reality, he's lesser than that. A scholar who's done poor at school and his father was a barber. Until he met Miss Cross, a Rushmore English teacher and found a friend within steel tycoon Herman Blume. Max fell in love to Miss Cross, not knowing Blume felt the same way.

Typical Wes Anderson, the framing of this movie was elegant, and symmetrical ( if you know what I mean). Not to mention, the soundtrack, fantastic. Beyond it's great characters or the many nods to 'The Graduate', this is a coming-of-age story that has too many depths beyond it. There is a Max Fischer in all of us, and a Rushmore that we all fight for.
The geek rates it 7.6/10.
The Wes Anderson Marathon returns this Friday, April 4 with my review of "The Royal Tenenbaums".
