Suzy Bishop
In Moonrise Kingdom, Suzy Bishop is a 12-year old girl who likes to look at everything through binoculars – it helps her “see things closer, even if they’re not far away.” While on the run together, Sam Shakusky gives her a pair of earrings made out of scarab beetles and fish hooks.

Alistair Hennessey
Alistair Hennessey is arch-nemesis to Steve Zissou in The Life Aquatic. True, Hennessey was once married to Zissou’s wife, but the animosity is more that he’s more handsome, rich, fashionable, and all-around successful than his counterpart.
Margot Tenenbaum
Margot is the adopted child of the Tenenbaum family, which father Royal never forgets to point out during introductions. She has a checkered past that includes a secret marriage, wooden finger, and most shocking of all, a smoking habit.

Dirk Calloway
Dirk Calloway, played by Mason Gamble, is loyal sidekick to Max Fischer. Their friendship hits a rough patch though when Dirk finds out Max has been coming onto his mom and talking about it at Rushmore. With friends like that who needs friends?
Fred Savage in The Wizard
Fred Savage as Corey Woods co-stars with Rilo Kiley in The Wizard, a 100-minute Nintendo commercial for Super Mario Bros 3 and the Power Glove. I love this outfit. It’s so bad.
Max Fischer
Max Fischer’s life revolves around Rushmore Academy, but not for the academics, what with model UN, kung fu, calligraphy, beekeepers club, and what not. Oh, and he saved Latin — what did you ever do?
Steve Jobs
As Steve Jobs changed the face of computing with the Macintosh, iMac, iPod, iPhone, and iPad, his outfit always remained the same. Presented here are the exact same brands that filled the closet of the late, great Apple CEO.
Ernest P. Worrell
Ernest P. Worrell, better known as Ernest Goes To…, is a bumbling but good-natured handyman. He was so popular in the 80’s that he was able to cross over from local TV commercials to a franchise spanning 10 films. It’s not too hard to replicate his outfit, but that face is another story. Knowhutimean?
