Academy Award® winner Robin Williams delivers one of his most memorable performances in Dead Poets Society. For generations, Welton Academy students have been groomed to live lives of conformity and tradition -- until new professor John Keating inspires them to think for themselves, live life to the fullest and "Carpe Diem". This unconventional approach awakens the spirits of the students, but draws the wrath of a disapproving faculty when an unexpected tragedy strikes the school. With unforgettable characters and beautiful cinematography, Dead Poets Society will captivate and inspire you time and time again.

Gone With The Twins

Mike Massie

Though it’s marginally overlong, the script is absorbing.

Rachel Wagner

It's extremely manipulative but it still works

An achingly beautiful story of high school boys who give up the guards of their masculinity and family expectations to believe in something beautiful and real.

An Oscar-winning drama about self-discovery, free-thinking, and the unfortunate costs that sometimes comes with them.
