“Arguably [Wes Anderson’s] most perfectly imagined film… sings with life and wit and strangeness” – Time Out
The dazzling sophomore film from Wes Anderson is equal parts coming-of-age story, French New Wave homage, and screwball comedy. Tenth grader Max Fischer (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 (Olivia Williams) and a melancholy self-made millionaire (Bill Murray, in an award-winning performance). Set to a soundtrack of classic British Invasion tunes, Rushmore defies categorization, capturing the pain and exuberance of adolescence with wit, emotional depth, and cinematic panache.

Come out before the film at 4:30 pm for a pre-show spotlighting the incredible music featured in the cinema of Wes Anderson, including film clips and music videos.

This film is screening as part of Arkadin’s POOL PARTY series, featuring movies that allow you to beat the summer heat (vicariously) by taking a dip in the cool waters of a swimming pool, even as mystery, murder, and heartbreak lurk on the horizon…

NOTE: On Rotten Tomatoes, this movie has a 90% on the Tomatometer and a 91% on the Popcornmeter.
