Dead Poets Society

Directed by Peter Weir - 1989

Summary A new English teacher, John Keating (Robin Williams), is introduced to an all-boys preparatory school that is known for its ancient traditions and high standards. He uses unorthodox methods to reach out to his students, who face enormous pressures from their parents and the school. With Keating's help, students Neil Perry (Robert Sean Leonard), Todd Anderson (Ethan Hawke) and others learn to break out of their shells, pursue their dreams and seize the day. Source
Opinion This movie was a 10/10 for me, would never watch again though. It inspired me to start going to musical theatre classes. It is a product of its time definitely. Not really that diverse, but I guess it makes sense for the setting and tone of the movie.
Outside of that I loved it and I will always be insufferable about it, sorry.

"Y llevas el caño a tu sien

Apretando bien las muelas

Y cierras los ojos y ves

Todo el mar en primavera

Bang, bang, bang

Hojas muertas que caen

Siempre igual

Los que no pueden más

Se van"
