Heads Down, Two Thumbs Up
Episode 05: Rushmore
If there is one thing Max Fischer loves, it’s his prep school Rushmore. “I guess you’ve just gotta find something you love to do and then… do it for the rest of your life. For me, it’s going to Rushmore.”Although he is the king of extracurriculars, has the ear of the administration, and befriends a wealthy industrialist parent, Herman Blume, Max is on Sudden Death Academic Probation. According to his headmaster, “Too many extracurriculars, Max, and not enough studying.” When Max falls for first grade teacher, Rosemary Cross, and becomes embroiled with a love triangle with Cross and Blume, his beloved Rushmore is threatened. Join Carla and Bill as we talk about Wes Anderson’s film, Rushmore.
