Summary

Wes Anderson's filmography is pocked with remarkable films, and 1998's Rushmore is undoubtedly one of them. Starring Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray, Rushmore is -- in our estimation -- a movie all about dealing with pain: The pain of growing up, the pain of loss, the pain of emptiness. But, in traditional Anderson form, Rushmore's melancholy is accompanied by copious wit and humor that balances everything out, delivering something perhaps far greater than the sum of its individual parts. So take dead aim at the rich boys, friends. But not before you listen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Isn't it fine? Just the, why does the chicken cutlet have to be hot?

499 or something. Yeah, yeah. Something ridiculous. Yeah. What is this?

1:12.3

Strawberry, apple, banana, and a hint of orange. Why only a hint of orange? I'm not sure about that.
