Every student, or rather, every boy or girl who is in the midst of a period of youthful confusion, should watch "Dead Poets Society" and be inspired. This kind of universality is what makes this movie so good.
"Dead Poets Society" does not tell a profound story, it just tells the story of a group of high school boys learning poetry collectively; It doesn't convey any incomprehensible philosophical ideas, because it just says that each of us is an individual and should give full play to our talents.
However, this kind of common sense understanding is not implemented in real life. Because in reality, almost everyone lives in confinement, where authority prevails over dissent, and individuality defeats consensus, as if what everyone is doing is right, and as long as there are other voices, it is noise.
But "Dead Poets Society" is different, the male protagonist in the film, Mr. Keating, is a person who can accommodate noise, and he is a soul mentor who takes the initiative to let everyone speak out and find personal freedom through the art of poetry.
That's where it's so rare, there's a sense of pure freedom. And in the film, the story also presents a kind of mourning and dislocation. In the beginning, the students who were first inspired by freedom and realized their own worth were broken in reality and became ghosts.
However, the students who kept to themselves at the beginning and had no sense of resistance eventually became the ones who supported Mr. Keating.
Teacher Keating, who inspired the children to discover their own value, became the scapegoat of the school's imprisoning education and was expelled from teaching.
Dead Poets Society, also known as Spring Breeze and Rain, as its name suggests, serves as a true teacher of what freedom really means to us.

"Dead Poets Society" is a 1989 film directed by Peter Weir and starring Robin Williams. Wilton Preparatory Academy is a serious and even somewhat rigid academy, and the students in it are all children who have high hopes from their families and hope to get ahead one day. Until one day, a teacher with a difference came to the school.
His name was John Keating, and unlike all the other faculty members in the school, he did not let the students follow the pages of the book, but encouraged them to stand at their desks and speak freely, he led the students in the school history building to listen to the sound of death, to think about the meaning of life, and to have them pacing in the courtyard and reading their ideals aloud. He did not teach the students any knowledge that is valuable in the traditional sense, but he opened the hearts of the students. They have learned to stop relying on textbooks, have the ability to think independently, no longer just follow their parents' choices, but look forward to their own future, and they even bravely break the ban set by the school, set up the Death Poetry Society, and recite around the campfire in the cave.
When we were students, we always felt that the Western education system was more liberal, but in fact, the academy in the movie was not unfounded. More young people just obey the will of the outside world, study hard, get good grades, have a good job, start a family, raise the next generation, and then create more so-called "successful people" for the society like industrial assembly line work. But in fact, everyone has their own uniqueness, but more people choose to obey the public choice at the age when they should know themselves, and be an ordinary person who will not be criticized by the outside world.
And everyone should rebel once in their ignorant age, break the ban, do something different, and think about something longer.
From the perspective of education, "medicine, law, business, and engineering are all noble pursuits, which are enough to sustain a person's life, but poetry, romance, and love are the meaning of our life." ”
