Dead Poets Society (1989)


A drama directed by Peter Weir.
A teacher values creativity and free thought over curriculum. some of his students follow his example.
The audio and video were both good. some of the dialogue was a little quiet, but I'll let that slide.
check out: the pipe smoking session. they all have different pipes. some straight, some bent. all look "rusticated".
The "love-life of one of the students" sub-plot was not necessary. It had nothing to do with the main plot at all and was not very interesting. The ending left me with a WTF feeling. I'd like to give this one the "green light", but it doesn't quite make it to that classification. There's something unidentifiable that rubs me the wrong way.
