The review of "Dead Poets Society"
In this movie, all those characters have their own unique personalities, but they all have something in common─ the love for poem. Mr. Keating (the teacher of those young, wayward ,naïve boys) imbue them with some ideas and way of reading a poem, which is deemed unorthodox,and after a span of months companio with Mr. Keating those boys,consequently, get a deeper insight into not only poems but also their inner fears and flaws. The part when Mr. Keating tells them to tear the page ,introducing the guide to a tool of evaluating a poem , of the textbooks apart really astounds me. It means you have to think for yourself and those poems should not be degraded by this subjective evaluation. And Neil ,the passionate actor , sacrifices his life to the destiny of acting in the end . Neil kills himself naked and I think this means he doesn’t have to carry along those worldly burden anymore: the fetters of the demand from his father .

Actually I`ve watched this movie while being a freshman in NTNU. Our chinese teacher asked us to .
Is this a movie that teaches us "seize the days"?
Anyway I really enjoyed it!
