The 30 Best High School Movie Kids

Cinema's straight A-list students

Max Fischer

Alma mater: Rushmore

Best subjects: Beekeeping, debating, latin.

Teacher’s comments: Max is a paragon of almost entirely talentless enthusiasm.

He’s a captain and a campaigner, the organiser of countless extra-curricular activities, and while he sucks at actual school (he’s eventually expelled) he does know the secret of happiness. “Just find something you love to do, and do it for the rest of your life.”

      Nice feature, but why is the Risky Business picture also on the Donnie Darko page?
