Les mésaventures de Max Fischer, élève de la Rushmore Academy. Personnage hors normes, génie fougueux et brouillon, Max ne peut fournir qu'un minimum d'efforts à ses études et s'est résigné à devenir l'un des pires cancres de son établissement. En dépit de ses échecs scolaires et des admonestations répétées de son directeur, Rushmore n'en reste pas moins à ses yeux un paradis et un sanctuaire idéal pour exercer en toute liberté son inlassable créativité.

WES ANDERSON’S HILARIOUS CULT PHENOMENON STARRING BILL MURRAY AND JASON SCHWARTZMAN.

The dazzling sophomore film from WES ANDERSON (Fantastic Mr. Fox) is equal parts coming‐of‐age story, French New Wave homage, and screwball comedy. Tenth grader Max Fischer (The Darjeeling Limited’s JASON SCHWARTZMAN) is Rushmore Academy’s most extracurricular student—and its least scholarly. He faces expulsion and enters into unlikely friendships with both a lovely first‐grade teacher (The Ghost Writer’s OLIVIA WILLIAMS) and a melancholy self‐made millionaire (Groundhog Day’s BILL MURRAY, in an awardwinning performance). Set to a soundtrack of classic British Invasion tunes, Rushmore defies categorization; it captures the pain and exuberance of adolescence with wit, emotional depth, and cinematic panache.
