Normally, you can tell how a movie's going to be by it's previews. But take a look at the random sampling of previews from Rushmore: Celebrity (excellent), She's All That (ugh), Velvet Goldmine (haven't seen it yet, but highly "liberal"). Ahhh, I love this movie. Via Max:
But couldn't you just let me float by? For old time's sake?(What are you gonna do)The only thing I can do: try to pull some strings in the administration, I guess."When one man, for whatever reason, has the opportunity to lead an extraordinary life, he has no right to keep it to himself." -Jacques-Yves Cousteau(I always though that's why you picked Dirk as your chaple partner.) "What are you, a lawyer?"I think you just gotta find something you love to do and then do it for the rest of your life. For me, that's going to Rushmore.Maybe I'm spending too much time starting clubs and putting on plays. (That's possible). I should probably be trying harder to score chicks.(You're like one of those clippership captains. You're married to the sea.) Yes, that's true. But I've been out to see for a long time.(I didn't have a major, but my thesis was on Latin American economic policy.) Well, that's interesting. Did you hear they're not going to teach Latin here anymore?(Never in my wildest imaginations did I ever dream I'd have sons like these.)(So you've changed your mind and you want the job.) No. I have an idea and I want some money.(What happened to your nose?) I got punched in the face. What's your excuse?I like your nurse's uniform, Guy. (These are OR scrubs). Oh, are they?(I am his friend, Dirk). Oh yeah, with friends like you who needs friends? --Dirk.I saved Latin. What did you ever do?Excuse me. I just came by to thank you for ruining my life.(And how long will you be staying with us, Mr. Bloom?) Indefinitely. I'm being sued for divorce. (Very good, sir.) Yo, shorty!Who told you that goddamn lie? Nevermind, I know who said it. And I'm gonna send him back to Ireland in a body bag. (He's from Scotland.) Well tell that stupid mick he just made my list of things of things to do today.(You said you wanted to put an end to all this) Oh, yeah. I was gonna have that tree over there fall on you.You probably can't hear me because I don't know if your brain is damaged or what -- (What do you want?) (That's the first thing he's said in 10 days).So this is where it all happens. (All what happens?) I wouldn't know. So why'dja dump Bloom?(I thought the aquarium was your idea.) Well, yes. But I gave it to a friend.(Well, you can stick it up your little ass, you little prick.) I must admit, Magnus. You've got a way with words.(I understand you're a neurosurgeon.) No, I'm a barber. But a lot of people make that mistake. --Mr Fischer

About me
Hi. Morgan, 27, of Santa Barbara, CA. I am a hypocritical admirer of rhetoric (when it is my own) and an observer of literary trends. A secret: I don't take anything very seriously, and that includes myself.
