Carpe Diem

Rating: Null/10 (12 April 2001)

I have recently watched "Dead Poets Society," and I want to recognize that the movie has touched me with new insights in life. This movie is about an unconventional new English teacher's inspiring his students to make their lives extraordinary. The main theme of this movie is "Carpe Diem" which means, "Seize the day." I think the movie gives me insight about the human life and extends my awareness of it. I truly like the characteristics of Mr. Keating- his honesty, his self-confidence and his ability to motivate his students. He teaches his students to believe in themselves and to have courage to stand up for their own beliefs. Thus, I recommend this movie to teachers, students, parents and anyone who is an authoritarian figure.
