For Wes Anderson, whose formative teenage years coincided with the dawn of MTV, sound and vision are inextricably linked. At a glance, the Rushmore soundtrack seems commonplace, with tracks by classic rock heavies John Lennon and The Kinks, but the song selections are unexpected and deeply felt. The hero’s dramatically self-conscious persona is reflected in the film’s music — a set of ’60s British Invasion deep cuts that make the whole picture feel displaced from time.
