Rushmore is a 1998 comedy-drama film directed by Wes Anderson about an eccentric teenager named Max Fischer ( Jason Schwartzman in his film debut), his friendship with rich industrialist Herman Blume ( Bill Murray), and their mutual love for elementary school teacher Rosemary Cross ( Olivia Williams). The film was co-written by Anderson and Owen Wilson. The soundtrack was scored by regular Anderson collaborator Mark Mothersbaugh and features several songs by bands associated with the British Invasion of the 1960s.
The movie helped launch the careers of Anderson and Schwartzman, while establishing a "second career" for Murray as a respected actor of independent cinema. At the 1999 Independent Spirit Awards, Anderson won Best Director award and Murray won Best Supporting Male award. Murray also earned a nomination for Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor – Motion Picture.
Empire also named Rushmore the 175th greatest film of all time in 2008. Four years after, Slant Magazine ranked the film #22 on its list of the 100 Best Films of the 1990s. According to ShortList, it is one of the 30 coolest films ever.
