Dead Poets Society

(1989)Directed by Peter Weir129 min · PGDrama
He was their inspiration. He made their lives extraordinary.

John Keating (Robin Williams) arrives at Welton Academy, a rigid boarding school built on tradition and obedience, determined to teach his students that poetry matters because life does. He inspires them to seize the day, to think for themselves, to chase what they actually want instead of what their parents demand. The boys discover that the life you're supposed to live and the life you want to live are often not the same thing.
