RUSHMORE
This movie contains idiosyncratic comedy, loose plot and needs to be watched carefully to actually appreciate the film. But to get a taste of Wes Anderson’s films, this one is the catch.

Humour is appreciated in all forms. Some even have the ability to extract comedy from any kind of situation. Humour is an accessible and valuable resource. Watch comedy and laugh more!
