In the 20th century, there were many American novels about east-coast boarding schools—perhaps the most famous is A Separate Peace (1959) by John Knowles, which shares Dead Poets Society’s themes of coming-of-age and institutional repression. Robin Williams' performance is more graceful than anything he's done before [–] he's totally, concentratedly there – [he] reads his lines stunningly, and when he mimics various actors reciting Shakespeare there's no undue clowning in it; he's a gifted teacher demonstrating his skills.Inspired by Keating, the boys resurrect the Dead Poets Society--a secret club where, free from the constraints and expectations of school and parents, they let their passions run wild.

As he leaves, Todd reveals to Keating that the boys were intimidated into signing the letter that sealed his fate, and he assures Todd that he believes him. Needless to say, this story definitely shaped me and left a profound impact on my psyche and understanding of the world.
