The emptiness you felt has to be blamed on your emotional ability of understanding, because it can't be blamed on the film. I would suggest you re-watch Tenenbaums again. If you still feel empty then you have never had a father, or grappled with the disappointment of watching someone you love not live up to your expectations.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-9193196372879029402011-05-22T22:30:49.289+12:002011-05-22T22:30:49.289+12:00Anything to do with Nicolas Cage is weird.

He was awesome in that role!<br /><br />Congrats to you on getting a nom!

I've never really bothered to check out the rest of his work since then, but maybe I should.<br /><br />I always find it strange to watch Schwartzman because for some reason I always think of him as "Nic Cage's cousin" and for some reason that seems weird...<br /><br />Anyway, I have barely any idea what I'm talking about there, so I'll just say Great Review, and congrats on getting two nominations at the Lammy's, great work!Jack Lhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14558083317361098572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-89513906515840038572011-05-22T10:18:15.139+12:002011-05-22T10:18:15.139+12:00Nikhat - I really connected with Max as well.

It's amazing how he found time to do all of those clubs, anyway. <br />Any movie with Olivia Williams has my vote, personally.<br /><br /><b>Cherokee</b> - I haven't seen The Royal Tenenbaums, though I probably really should. This movie felt to me like a trying to drive a car in a 50km area at 20km. It just doesn't get very far. But it's cool.<br />Jason Schwartzman was awesome in this. It was hard to believe that this was his first film.<br /><br /><b>Hatter</b> - Hehe, this movie has so many brilliant lines! It was cool!Stevee Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12284769251750574447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-76751785984525898692011-05-22T01:53:43.740+12:002011-05-22T01:53:43.740+12:00"These are my O.R. scrubs"

(Though I think I'd enjoy Rushmore a lot more than Tenebaums.)<br /><br />I do really like Jason Schwartzman though, so I have no idea why I have not seen this yet...Film4 over here show it a lot, though, so it's bound to pop up on TV sometime soon.<br /><br />Good review!Cherokeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14147334445332458371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2587775651487578742.post-58010012664298000352011-05-21T16:49:23.170+12:002011-05-21T16:49:23.170+12:00I love this film, my personal favourite of all Wes...I love this film, my personal favourite of all Wes Anderson creations. I for one could really connect with Max, even though technically I was an over-achiever in school. I think I envy his ability to do everything else. And he's just so adorable too. I find it more relateable than Royal Tenenbaums...in fact I found that film empty in many ways. Rushmore is sunny and happy, and even the sadder parts amuse you. Also ofcourse, who would not wanna see Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray fight over a girl, that too someone as pretty as Olivia Williams.Nikhathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10379713171889712078noreply@blogger.com
