Dead Poets Society (1989)


 "O Captain, My Captain!"

Between January and February, I've been busy searching Oscar nominated movies. After that, it's been a dry land. Of course, I've been so caught up with routinity and there's not much time. Fortunately I found several worth-to-watch movies. Some new movies can't compete the legendary classic movies, like Dead Poets Society. You can always rely on classic, if you are bored with anything up to date. Again, it feels like a found a treasure, because not only it's a movie back from 1989, but this movie also have an outstanding message for life. I could see this movie being one of the best ones I've seen.

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 are changed for life. (imdb.com)

DRIVING MISS DAISY (1989)





Driving Miss Daisy is a 1989 American comedy-drama film adapted from the Alfred Uhry play of the same title for Warner Bros. The film was directed by Bruce Beresford with Morgan Freeman reprising Hoke's role and Jessica Tandy playing Miss Daisy. The story defines Daisy and her point of view through a network of relationships and emotions by focusing on her home life, synagogue, friends, family, fears, and concerns. Hoke is rarely seen out of Miss Daisy's presence, although the title implies that the story is told from his perspective.(wikipedia)
