Rushmore (Escena de guión + Escena fílmica)

EXT.PARK-DAY

A cold day. Dry leaves fall from the trees in the park. Mr. Blume comes down the path to Max sitting alone on a bench. Max is dressed in blue jeans, a plaid shirt, a ski cap, and huge down parka. Mrs. Blume is wearing a topcoat and gloves. Max stands up to shake hands with her.

MAX

Thank you for meeting me.

MRS. BLUME (coldly)

You're welcome.

MAX

Would you like a sandwich?


Silence. Mrs. Blume looks around the park.

MRS. BLUME

All right.

She sits down. Max takes two sandwiches out of his backpack.

MAX

I have tuna fish and I have peanut butter and jelly. I'm sorry it's not
something more exotic.

MRS. BLUME

I'll take the tuna fish.

Max gives her the tuna fish sandwich.

MAX

Milk or apple juice?

Max holds out the two drinks. Mrs. Blume just stares at him.

MAX

You want me to cut to the chase?

Silence. Max puts down his sandwich and gathers his thoughts.

MAX

OK. As you know, Mr. Blume and I used to be friends.

MRS. BLUME

I have no idea what the relationship is between you and Herman. Honestly, I
find it very bizarre.

MAX (taken aback)

What do you mean to imply?

MRS. BLUME

I'm not implying anything. You make a very strange couple. It's
too bad Herman doesn't have that kind of affection for his own children.

MAX

Well, I'm sure he does.

MRS. BLUME

No, he doesn't.

MAX

I know you don't really mean that.

MRS. BLUME (angry)

Of course, I do.

MAX

From his perspective it's -

MRS. BLUME

Why did you call me?

MAX

That's what I'm trying to tell you.

MRS. BLUME (icily)

Please. Get to the point.

MAX

Gladly. Your husband's fucking a schoolteacher, pardon my French. I thought
you should know.

Silence.

MRS. BLUME

Why are you telling me this? Are you trying to hurt Mr. Blume? Or are you
trying to hurt me?

MAX

I have no reason to want to hurt you.

MRS. BLUME

Then you're trying to hurt Herman.

MAX

That's correct.

Y después de esto lo que pasaba era lo siguiente:

Conque preguntas cortas, ¿eh? La verdad es que sí, te la recomiendo, a ti y a cualquiera que no la haya visto. Creo que es la película más digestible para los iniciados en el mundo de ese estrafalario personaje o director, o guionista, o Dios, o lo que sea llamado Wes Anderson, porque como te metas pal cuerpo por ejemplo The life Aquatic sin haber visto antes cualquiera de las tres pelis anteriores de este tipo, te espera una muerte súbita. Ah, por cierto, que las tres primeras(Bottle Rocket, Academia Rushmore y Los Tenenbaums) las coguionizó con su amigo del alma Owen Wilson, que aunque no lo parezca, es un guionista del copón. Hasta tienen una nominación al Oscar al mejor guión original.
