Dead Poet's Society
Who's in it: Robin Williams, Robert Sean Leonard, Ethan Hawke, Kurtwood Smith
What's it about: Going to a school for boys wasn't the dream for Neil(Leonard), but his father(Smith) wanted him to be a doctor. This year, however, Neil wanted to do everything his way. With the help of his gang and new friend Todd(Hawke), not to mention his English teacher(Williams), he's restarted the 'Dead Poet's Society'. When things get out of hand and everything goes wrong, the school is out to get someone to blame.
What I Think: When I asked my mother about this movie, she told me that it was awful and dissappointing. I think that she was wrong. I downright loved the movie. I love the flexibility that Williams has over every movie that he's ever done. He's a comedian but he can play a heartwarming man when needed. I absolutely love Leonard, especially as Wilson in 'House', and found it funny that in this movie he was studying to be a doctor. Recommended for all ages... except for the scene of slight nudity.
