IT IS VERY NICE MOVIE: Raj M
I liked it better the first time, when it was called "The Dead Poets Society"
A very fine picture indeed, aided by the acting prowess of the always more-than-merely-good Kevin Kline, who shines here with a finely nuanced performance. The actingin general is above reproach, and the story line convincing and original. My only quibble is that Bell caved in rather too easily to Professor H`s challenge to participate in the competition. The movie spins a thoughtfully moral but realistic tone, and resolutions are well-earned, not merely pat.
it was the most inspiring story ive ever seen put into a movie
