Painfully shy Todd Anderson has been sent to the school where his popular older brother was valedictorian. His room-mate, Neil, although exceedingly bright and popular, is very much under the thumb of his overbearing father. The two, along with their other friends, meet Professor Keating, their new English teacher, who tells them of the Dead Poets Society, and encourages them to go against the status quo. Each, in their own way, does this, and is changed for life. Seven boys, Neil Perry (Robert Sean Leonard), Todd Anderson (Ethan Hawke), Knox Overstreet (Josh Charles), Charlie Dalton (Gale Hansen), Richard Cameron (Dylan Kussman), Steven Meeks (Allelon Ruggiero) and Gerard Pitts (James Waterston) attend the prestigious Welton Academy prep school, which is based on four principles: Tradition, Honour, Discipline and Excellence.On the first day of class, the students are introduced to their overwhelming and extraordinary curriculum by sullen headmaster Gale Nolan (Norman Lloyd). However, their new English teacher John Keating (Robin Williams) tells the students that they may call him "O Captain! My Captain!" (the title of a Walt Whitman poem) if they feel daring. His first lesson is unorthodox by Welton standards, whistling the 1812 Overture and taking them out of the classroom to focus on the idea of carpe diem (Latin for 'seize the day') by looking at the pictures of former Welton students in a trophy case. In a later class Keating has Neil read the introduction to their poetry textbook, a staid, dry essay entitled "Understanding Poetry" by the fictional academic Dr. J. Evans Pritchard, Ph. D., which describes how to place the quality of a poem on a scale, and rate it with a number. Keating finds the idea of such mathematical literary criticism ridiculous (calling it "excrement") and encourages his pupils to rip the introductory essay out of their textbooks. After a brief reaction of disbelief, they do so gleefully as Keating congratulates them with the memorable line "Begone, J. Evans Pritchard, Ph. D" (much to the surprise and disbelief of one of Keating's colleagues). He later has the students stand on his desk as a reminder to look at the world in a different way, just as Henry David Thoreau intended when he wrote, "The universe is wider than our views of it" (Walden).The rest of the movie is a process of awakening, in which the boys (and the audience) discover that authority can and must always act as a guide, but the only place where one can find out one's true identity is within oneself. To that end, the boys secretly revive an old literary club in which Keating had been a member, called the Dead Poets Society. Todd experiences a particular transformation when, out of a severe episode of self-consciousness, he fails to complete a creative writing assignment and is subsequently taken through an exercise of uncharacteristic self-expression, realizing the creative potential he truly possesses. One of the boys, Charlie Dalton, takes his new personal freedom too far and publishes a profane and unauthorized article in the school flyer. In this article, Charlie states that he wants to have girls allowed at Welton. To the amusement of the other boys, he fakes a phonecall from God saying that girls should be allowed at Welton. Dean Nolan paddles and interrogates Charlie about the others involved. Charlie says he acted alone.Neil, without his father's permission, tries out for a local production of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. He desperately wants to be an actor, but knows his father (Kurtwood Smith) will disapprove. One day when Neil walks into his dorm room, he finds his father waiting for him. He orders Neil to withdraw from the play, but Neil goes against his wishes and delivers a sterling performance as Puck. Infuriated by this affront to his authority, Neil's father plans to pull him out of Welton and to enroll him in Braden Military School to prepare him for Harvard University and pursue a career in medicine. Unable to cope with the future that awaited him and equally unable to make his father understand his passion for acting, Neil commits suicide with his father's revolver.By the request of Neil's parents, the headmaster holds an investigation into the tragedy. Nolan gets help from one of the students, Richard Cameron. When Charlie Dalton finds out that Cameron has not only squealed on them, but also blamed Keating, he furiously attacks his former friend, and is expelled from Welton.Neil's parents take no responsibility for his son's death and instead holds Keating responsible. In Nolan's office, Todd is forced to regretfully sign a written confession casting blame on his former teacher. It is implied that the other students who are still faithful to Keating were similarly forced. Keating is accused of inciting the boys to restart the Dead Poets Society, and is fired, even though they recreated it themselves.In the film's dramatic conclusion, the boys return to English class following Keating's termination. The class is now being temporarily taught by Nolan, who has the boys read from the very Pritchard essay they had ripped out at the start of the semester. As the lesson drones on, Keating enters the room to retrieve a few belongings. On his way out, Todd apologizes to Keating for having signed the confession, citing the force exercised by the Academy. Keating acknowledges this. Nolan sternly orders Todd to be quiet and demands that Keating leave at once. As he exits the door, Keating is startled to hear "Captain! My Captain!" being called out by Todd, who has stood on his desk as Keating bid him to do earlier, demonstrating the new perspective Keating has taught him. Enraged, Nolan warns Todd to sit down immediately or face expulsion, only to be defied. Then, one after another, the members of the Dead Poet's Society (except Cameron) climb onto their desks (the first exclaiming "O Captain! My Captain!"--the others silenty but resolutely) as a form of salute. The furious Nolan is defeated; he cannot expel half the class without compromising the school's image, and with it his reputation. Keating is touched and thanks the boys. He then leaves Welton for good, satisfied that the life lessons he has imparted to them have left their marks.

死亡诗社，外文名Dead Poets Society，又译为春风化雨；暴雨骄阳，是由罗宾·威廉姆斯、伊桑·霍克以及罗伯特·肖恩·莱纳德主演的一部励志电影，故事讲述的是一个有思想的老师和一群希望突破的学生之间的故事。该片获第62届奥斯卡金像奖最佳原创剧本奖。《死亡诗社》代表了青春片很重要的一各组成部分——校园生活。这部经典的校园影片让我想起德国作家黑塞早期的名作《在轮下》，两者都是以一所刻板、封闭的著名学校为背景，描写它对年轻心灵的压迫和青少年在其间的成长与反抗。只是前者没有那么绝望，安排了一位倡导独立思想的老师基廷指引他的主人公。也正是因此，《死亡诗社》并不像人们想象得那样阴郁悲伤，相反，前半部分几乎可以说是欢畅淋漓的，平原，鸟群，皑皑白雪，还有顽皮淘气的男孩子们，在他们亲爱的“船长”基廷的启蒙下，迅速丰满着自己的精神世界。整部电影充满张力诗意和激情。模式化的教育是一个残酷的现实，影片所讲述的不仅仅是这样的现实，更多的是反映出学生们对自主学习的向往，影片的结尾，导演将镜头从基丁的裤下穿过，看见了学生们骄傲的站在课桌上，这才是精神的胜利。
跟着Serena觅好食
“我步入丛林，因为我希望生活得有意义，我希望活得深刻，汲取生命中所有的精华，把非生命的一切都击溃，以免让我在生命终结时，发现自己从来没有活过。人的一生，其实只需要一课。对吗？”这是《死亡诗社》的“宝书”扉页上写着的一段话，出自梭罗的《瓦尔登湖》。这部被无数青年人奉为文学启迪的电影，英文名叫Dead Poets Society ，dead翻译过来是死亡的，poets翻译过来是诗人，society翻译过来是社团，很明显，中文译过来完全是字面意思，也就是死亡诗人的社团，简称死亡诗社，当然也跟电影中学校有这么一个社团的关系。而相比之下，我更喜欢台版翻译过来的名字 —— 春风化雨。不刻板，彰显诗意，直指内心，更加温情。 威尔顿预科学院一向都是以传统、守旧的方法来教授学生，可是新学期来校的新文学老师基廷却一改学校的常规，让自己班上的学生们要“把握当下”，并以该原则行事。在教学的第一堂课上，基廷并没有在教室里上课，而是领同学们看校史楼内的照片，让他们去聆听死者的声音，并去领悟生命的真谛。基廷甚至要求学生将课本中古板老套的内容撕去，自由的教学方式让学生开始懂得自己的兴趣、爱好、前途和目标。他的学生们甚至反抗学校的禁令，重新成立基廷曾于该校学生时代参与过的秘密小组 —— 死亡诗社，在校外很远的山洞中探讨诗歌、人生。但不久后，学校发现这个小组，校方对基廷老师的教育方法十分反对。 基廷的学生尼尔热爱表演，并在一次演出上大获成功。但他父亲坚决反对，并将他带回家决定第二天让其转校。尼尔极度痛苦却无法倾诉，在当晚自杀了。小组成员之一卡梅隆出卖了他们。校方逼小组成员在声明上签字，将责任推卸于基廷身上，将他开除出学校。在老师要离开学校的时候，学生们站立在桌上，并说着“哦，我的船长，我的船长！” ，以表达老师传达给他们的信念会在他们心中一直存在着。 这部电影上映于1989年，至今已快三十个年头，比《肖申克的救赎》 、 《阿甘正传》等经典还要早上几年。作为文艺剧情片，虽然在某些方面无法与这些电影相匹敌，但它所传达出来的力量，所表现出来的思想，却一样是十分巨大且深远的。每个喜欢看电影的人心中都有几部尊崇为神作的影片， 《Dead Poets Society》 就是我心目中的神，没有之一。 从基廷老师的对着一群学生说出“及时行乐”时，我就已经被这部电影深深吸引。“花开堪折直须折，莫待无花空折枝” ，他没有按照一贯的传统，在教室中规中矩的教学，更没有把上课局限于教室课堂之上。对于一群刚入学的学生来说，对他们最重要的不是知识和素养，而是认知和思想，如何思考，如何对待，才是最珍贵和应该学习的。故事以一个瘦弱、胆小的好学生托德的视角开始，通过他的所看、所感来展现了一个古板、腐朽的学习坏境。他被安排跟尼尔一个宿舍，面对这个热情、活泼、开朗的男生，托德有些不知所措，他的世界里只有学习和考试，一切对于他来说都太过新奇和惧怕。第一堂课的作业是写一首诗，当基廷老师让他大声念出来时，托德羞愧的低下了脑袋，面对一大群人，还是在课堂上，托德没有勇气。对于这个场景，我们再熟悉不过了，甚至司空见惯，流连于应试教育的你我，已经养成了埋头苦学不问世事的习惯，连表达都成为了一个障碍。 但托德是幸运的，他遇到了一位人生导师，和一个敢于追求、热心的室友尼尔。 基廷一直在用自己的方式来促使学生们勇敢表达，不停留于纸面，勇敢追求自己喜爱的。让大家把课本中无用的东西全部撕掉，摆脱陈旧的思想；让他们一个接一个的站在被视为圣地的讲台上，提醒大家要用不同的眼光看待事物；带他们去室外上课，手脚口并用，激发学习的积极性和欲望。 面对这位语文老师的如此教学，托德是又怕又喜。基廷带他们做的这些事，对托德来说简直就是折磨，但也是在这样的方式下，托德内心慢慢发生了变化，也不再是一个什么都不敢做、不敢大声讲话的好学生。 尼尔的离世，又在这个基础上刺激了托德，这个如此美好，似天使般的男孩，竟然选择以自杀来寻求解脱。已经被逼到了如此地步，或许对于尼尔来说，这样会更好。在你们的阴影下生活了十几年，如今我终于自由了。 “若为自由故，二者皆可抛” ，托德在雪地上嘶声痛哭，跪在白皑皑的操场上，竟也不知所措。而也在这一刻，托德明白了很多事，更加坚定了内心的想法 —— 勇敢地追求自己想要的，即便是死亡。看着尼尔在舞台上精彩缤纷的表演，我竟也无语凝噎。如若世间种种皆为梦幻，但愿我不会醒来。希望他永远的在舞台上，饰演一只精灵，一位配角，一个小丑，或一个无关轻重又不可缺少的甲乙丙丁，即使最后徒劳无获，碌碌而终，也好过在自己的家中绝望地开枪自尽，结束短暂的一生。在这里，我看到了太多的人生百态。可恨的告密者，懦弱的顺从者，无能为力的大多数人，追求爱情的少部分人，勇敢的，善良的，美丽的，可爱的，无耻的，挣扎的，幸福的，痛苦的。 哦，我的船长，你为何带领我们行至半程，就一去不复返？有船员牺牲，这不是你的错啊！是罪恶，要怪就怪这个世界吧！别走啊船长，是你教会了我们追求自由，如何看待问题。你让我们心中充满诗意，告诉我们：诗歌、美丽、浪漫、爱情，这些才是我们活着的意义；你让我们寻求问题的答案，要敢于逆流而上，告诫我们及时行乐，把握当下。 面对尼尔的死亡，你肯定悲伤欲绝，一直愧疚于心，但你是在拯救他，使他得以解脱，你拯救的也不仅仅只是他，还有站在课桌上，面对着你喊出“船长！我的船长！”的我们啊！ 你的离开不是结束，而是新的开始。在以后的日子里，你所给予的，我们会受益终生，你所传达的，我们会铭记于心。我们是怯懦的水手，是怕水的见习员，你是伟大的船长，是引领我们走向生命的导师。 这部电影我看了三遍，但仍然不敢说自己完全明白了，它所传达的思想需要时间来沉淀和思索，也需要我们在今后的人生道路上不断完善和感悟。
