Dead Poets Society

“He was their inspiration. He made their lives extraordinary.”

Todd Anderson (Ethan Hawke) arrives at Welton Academy in 1959 hoping to get through a boarding school that prizes tradition and discipline without being noticed. His new English teacher, John Keating (Robin Williams), has other plans, and tells his students to seize every day. Peter Weir sets one man's push to live deliberately against a headmaster and a school that would rather the boys stayed in line.
