Who would have thought that the leader of the Rushmore private school community that almost dominates the entire Rushmore private school is a three-foot-six, always wearing black-rimmed glasses, a pair of unsmiling, dull Max? Even Principal Guttingen, who led Max into Rushmore, was unexpected. When Herman asked Max, the principal could only say with 100% certainty that he was a big trouble.

No one knows what Max is keen to be a leader. He is energetically invested in various fields. The only thing he can do is cultural achievements. It is no wonder that he will be so obsessed in his dream that he holds a coffee cup in math class. Solve the world's most difficult geometric equations in a calm and unrestrained manner to surprise the four bridge sections.

Youth seems to be really limited to some people. There are many people who sing "My youth bird never returns" and lament that youth is perishable. It is commendable that the director of the film, Wes Anderson, can disagree with age and youth. Mix and match into a realistic version of "fairy tale". Has anyone stipulated that age and thought must have a positive relationship? With such an open question label, with a youthful but serious expression, Max was born. Who has stipulated that youth must be the exclusive product of youth? Seeking an elixir for life, savoring the pain of a middle-aged crisis and eager to find the value of life, Herman appeared. They are destined to be complementary friends and allies of the same thinking.

When the "Nothin'in the world can stop me worryin'bout that girl" by The Kinks sounded, He Man was sitting on the edge of the pool and threw a basket of golf balls into the pool, the twins opposite the pool. The son was surrounded by his friends and happily opened his birthday present. There was a basketball on the table. The wife and a male friend were feeding the cake and chatting intimately. There was a can of tennis balls on the table. This is really a lonely game. Indeed, basketball is a game for a group of people, and tennis is a fun for two people. Only this lonely golf requires only one person’s hole-in-one. The picture flashed back to the family portrait of Heman's house. The two sons were carefree and giggling. The wife stood behind her arms crossed and looked confident and contented. Only Heman still had such a chatty expression and extremely sluggish look.

Since life is so bad and there is nowhere to hide, let me fall into the quiet bottom like a stone full of heavy thoughts.

At the same time Max is feeling unable to extricate himself from chasing the emotion that sprouts in his adolescence-love. "I have been wandering at sea for too long." The passage she wrote in the book was like the arrow of the love god in the middle of the red heart, making Max couldn't help but want to find out and unconsciously got deeper and deeper. Or, in other words, Max's heart is always affected by the early death of his mother, which makes him deeply fascinated by the characteristics of maternity, which can be seen from his enthusiasm for talking with Dirk's mother. And the talented female teacher Lomari is the perfect image in his heart. To him, she is like the harbor he has finally found after wandering on the sea for too long.

"In any case, when a person has the opportunity to create an outstanding life, he has the right to stick to his beliefs." He loves this passage as much as she does, but he also begins to love her.

It happened so quietly, and when Herman helped Max approach Lomari, he fell over for her too. It just so happened that Max wanted to build an aquarium for Lomarie in the school, so Principal Guttingen finally had a legitimate reason to expel Max. Max, who left Rushmore, entered a public school. For him, everything in the new school is terrible. Coupled with Herman's scheming from the sidelines, Max opted for a "circular tactic" and approached Lomari again, but the hidden jealousy between the old and the young and the two men became more and more fierce, making people laugh.

Finally one day, the lie was exposed. Max finds Herman in a rage and asks about his relationship with Lomari. Thus, the duel between the two men began. Putting bee stings, crushing bicycles, braking failures,... these tricks make people laugh, and they are more like childish venting to each other than duels. ending? The ending is of course two lonely men. Lomari has never forgotten her deceased ex-husband. She followed her ex-husband's footsteps to Rushmore. To her, Max was still a child, and Herman was a married man, and they were friends. How could she have the heart to make any choices?

Everything is like a dream falling into a rabbit hole. Everything is back to the beginning again, and it seems to be better than before. Such a youth farce confuses all those who are related or not related to youth, but it urges everyone involved in it.

Herman chose to divorce, and the marriage in name only allowed him to live in confusion for too long. Max chose to accept Marg, the girl who had always liked him, and let go of his obsession. The two who got back together even really built an aquarium in Rushmore, everything is as beautiful as a fairy tale.

When the ending Faces' "Ooh la la" sounded, it was moved and relieved. Even if this ending is the most agreeable and honest, when we grow together to become a shared cake for all, the healing emotions will inevitably be unstoppable. Here, the issue of age and youth no longer vie with each other, the choice and the loss, the loss and the gain, through the end is just a moment of mutual understanding.
