Dead Poets Society

Dir. Peter Weir · United States of America · English, Latin

He was their inspiration. He made their lives extraordinary.

What happens

At an elite, old-fashioned boarding school in New England, a passionate English teacher inspires his students to rebel against convention and seize the potential of every day, courting the disdain of the stern headmaster.

What the critics said

Notable Critics

"Story sings whenever Williams is onscreen. Screen belongs just as often to Leonard, who as Neil has a quality of darting confidence mixed with hesitancy. Hawke, as the painfully shy Todd, gives a haunting performance."

— Variety Staff
