After all these years I have never seen this film and I'm sorry it took me this long. Dead Poets Society impressively captures the internal deliberation of young, impressionable men to both take direction from their leaders and role models and at the same time chart their own path against questionable influence and authority. Until the unthinkable occurs, these boys travel through the story displaying all of the wonderment of adolescent development with infectious optimism. After experiencing tremendous loss, the conflict between them shows the struggle each character faces in determining the extent to which they're willing to uphold their developing convictions.
