Review

This outlandish, hilarious and inventive comedy from the director of Bottle Rocket delights in its irreverent examination of the vicious underbelly of adolescence and the dark and twisted side of puppy love. Schwartzman stars as 15-year-old Max Fischer, a brilliant intellect and academic underachiever who is the body politic of Rushmore, an exclusive academy for boys. Max's motto is "to hell with grades." After forging an alliance with one of Rushmore's wealthiest benefactors, Herman Blume (Murray), his institutional confidence becomes undermined when he meets the newest first grade teacher, Rosemary Cross (Williams), and is instantly overcome by an obsessive love that only increases when his good friend Herman joins the fight for her attentions. The ensuing rivalry stays firmly ensconced in its own wacky brand of delightfully subversive, Salinger-esque humor. Schwartzman is stellar in his film debut as the crafty and vindictive pubescent, and Murray delivers a career performance as a befuddled and lonely millionaire teetering on the verge of his mid-life crisis.
