Dead Poets Society (1989) Edit

A girl this beautiful in love with such a jerk.

A good persuasion. Therefore, hear me, Hermia.

A major theme not only in poetry, but life.

A man is not very tired, he is exhausted.

A realist.

A Shakespearean sonnet, on the other hand,

A sweaty toothed madman with a stare that pounds my brain.

A sweaty toothed madman.

About as much as you look forward to root canal work.

About some unorthodox teaching methods, in your classroom.

About your passion for acting. You ever show him that?

Abraham Cowley.

Acting's everything to me. I...

Again, please.

Ah. So you are.

Aha!

Ahem. We're trying very hard to understand why it is that you insist on defying us.

Ahem. You know how much this means to your mother, don't you?

Alfred Lord Tennyson.

All of you, down. I want you seated.

All right, all right. Jesus.

All right, but you still shouldn't have done it, Charlie.

All right, gentlemen. Five minutes.

All right, goddamn it.

All right, intermission.

All right, now, I didn't bring them up here to ridicule them.

All right, then, we'll start over.

All right, they're putting it on at Henley Hall.

All right?

All right. Who's in?

All right. Who's in?

All that's best of dark and bright

All the good ones go for jerks, you know that.

Amen, amen, to that fair prayer, say I;

Amen.

Amen.

And 'tailor' cries, and falls into a cough;

And a wise man understands which is called for.

And all will be forgiven.

And are we just playing around out there, or do we mean what we say?

And are we just playing around out there, or do we mean what we say?

And at that point, he will indicate to you to light the candles of the boys.

And don't use "very sad," use... Come on, Mr. Overstreet, you twerp.

And English, and trig.

And enrolling you in Braden Military School.

And go quietly about the business of achieving other ambitions."

And gods were created, gentlemen.

And have failed just as surely as you will fail.

And he's having a party.

And he's never asked me what I want.

And here my mistress. Would that he were gone!

And I suppose you would promise that this would be the end of it.

And I've decided that you should drop the school annual.

And if he has trouble breathing, you can give him some of those.

And if the rest of you are smart, you'll do exactly what I did.

And if you guys are smart, you will do exactly what I did and cooperate.

And in the enchantment of the moment, we'd let poetry work its magic.

And its importance is plotted on the vertical,

And Keating's marked a bunch of other pages.

And learn our rhyme and meter

And let me assure you, I will find them.

And line up single file.

And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits,

And more than 75 percent of those went on to the Ivy League.

And necessary to sustain life.

And no, at that time, I was not the mental giant you see before you.

And not, when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived."

And on her wither'd dewlap pour the ale.

And once these questions have been answered,

And once these questions have been answered,

And one day at dawn With her night shift on

And people would kick copies of Byron in my face.

And peruse some of the faces from the past.

And report on them every five weeks.

And some of the chapters on post Civil War literature.

And stared in horror

And take her hand.

And take turns reading from Thoreau, Whitman, Shelley, the biggies.

And the casualties could be your hearts and souls.

And the human race is filled with passion.

And the other new initiates now present.

And then the whole quire hold their hips and laugh,

And they're driving through the forest at night from a long trip.

And this old lady who had a passion for jigsaw puzzles

And this weak and idle theme, No more yielding but a dream,

And though we are not now

And to use it as a source of inspiration for reckless and self indulgent behavior.

And two:

And two: How important is that objective?

And waxen in their mirth and neeze and swear

And we didn't just read poetry, we let it drip from our tongues like honey.

And we...

And when she drink, against her lips I bob

And who, for the past several years,

And with trembling hands, she placed the last four pieces

And you can pick your teeth with a little paw."

And you will not let me down.

And you're out of this school.

And, good night, sweet friend:

And, oh, if he can't swallow, you give him one of these.

Answer him, Todd.

Answer me.

Anybody?

Anyone failing to turn in any homework assignment

Anything's better than Hell ton hash, Knox.

Are we gonna have a meeting, or what?

Are you crazy? What's wrong with that?

Armies of academics going forward measuring poetry.

As she pieced the puzzle together, she realized to her astonishment

As someone who writes something very interesting.

As you know,

As you proceed through the poetry in this book, practice this rating method.

Assume the position.

At the face of a demented madman at the window.

At the request of Neil's family,

At these boys' age? Not on your life.

Aw, pbbt. Boo.

Aye, aye, captain.

Back by 9? Please, come on in.

Banners up.

Bastard.

Be gone, J. Evans Pritchard, Ph.D.

Because the longer you wait to begin, the less likely you are to find it at all.

Because we are food for worms, lads.

Because you can forget that.

Because you'll miss some golden opportunities.

Because, believe it or not, each and every one of us in this room

Because, you see, gentlemen, these boys are now fertilizing daffodils.

Being in the club means being stirred up by things.

Believe what you want, but I say let Keating fry.

Big alums. How'd you swing that?

Bonne chance, gentlemen.

Boys, you must strive to find your own voice.

Bright light shines from her eyes.

Bring her down the stage and stop, and, "There, gentle Hermia." Try again.

Bubba, this guy look like Mutt Sanders to you, or what?

Burn that. Especially my picture.

Business as usual, huh?

But at least he's letting me stay in the play.

But being in means you gotta do something,

But he doesn't know, he...

But he'll be gone at least four days.

But he's planning the rest of my life for me,

But I don't think you've really looked at them.

But I might not.

But I think he's gonna let me stay with acting.

But I...

But if any of you have seen Mr. Marlon Brando,

But if you listen real close,

But life is complete Contentment is mine

But only average on the horizontal.

But only in their dreams Can men be truly free

But poetry, beauty, romance, love,

But that's 10 more years.

But what?

But you can save yourselves.

But you deliberately deceived me.

But you must trust that your beliefs are unique, your own.

But, father, I can't. It wouldn't be fair.

But, of course, my father wouldn't let me.

But, room, fairy! Here comes Oberon.

By society member Henry David Thoreau.

Called Robin Goodfellow.

Cameron, you fool.

Can I help you?

Can you believe it?

Captain?

Carpe diem, that's "seize the day."

Carpe diem.

Carpe diem.

Carpe. Carpe.

Carpe...

Carpe...

Chaos screaming, chaos dreaming Gotta do more, gotta be more.

Charlie Dalton.

Charlie, help me.

Charlie, I got it.

Charlie, I got the part. Rah!

Charlie, tell me why they swoon. Charlie.

Charlie, what are you doing?

Charlie, you had no right to do something like that.

Charlie.

Chet found out, and it took everything I could do

Chet, can you get that?

CHRIS Hello?

Chris, you can't be in here.

Chris.

Chris.

Chris.

Come on, Charlie, let it fill your soul.

Come on, folks, it's Friday night. Let's get on with the meeting.

Come on, I need my...

Come on, Knox. It'll help you get Chris.

Come on, Knox. Join in.

Come on, let's go. On the bus, boys, now.

Come on, Meeks. Listen to the music.

Come on, Neil. Here's your crown. Let's go.

Come on, Nuwanda, we're gonna miss Neil's entrance.

Come on, Spaz. I have to brush my teeth.

Come on, Todd, I'm trying to fix this.

Come on, Todd, step up. Let's put you out of your misery.

Come on, you can't yawp sitting down. Let's go. Come on, up.

Come on, you can't yawp sitting down. Let's go. Come on, up.

Come on.

Come see for yourselves. Come on.

Come, my friends

Come.

Consider what you think.

Could you give that back?

Count aloud, Mr. Dalton.

Courtyard?

Creak.

Creak.

Cut out that racket in there.

Cutting through the forest With a golden track.

Cutting through the forest With a golden track.

Cutting through the forest With a golden track.

Cutting through the forest With a golden track.

Cutting through the forest With a golden track.

Cutting through the forest With a golden track.

Cutting through the forest With a golden track.

Cutting through the forest With a golden track.

Cutting through the forest With a golden track.

Damn it. It's gonna happen, guys.

Dangers of conformity.

Dare to strike out and find new ground.

Dead Poets' honor.

Determining the poem's greatness becomes a relatively simple matter.

Determining the poem's greatness becomes a relatively simple matter.

Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives

Dig deep, right here. Right here, lay it down.

Do you hear me?

Do you hear me? Sit down.

Do you think for one moment they're gonna let this thing just blow over?

Do you think I can get in there? You've been hogging it all day.

Do your lessons.

Doing poetry is old

Don't be resigned to that. Break out.

Don't be so dramatic. You make it sound like a prison term.

Don't just walk off the edge like lemmings, look around you.

Don't keep anything back, either.

Don't make it any worse than it is.

Don't tell me how to talk to my father. You guys are the same.

Don't think that I don't know

Don't touch him. You do and you're out.

Don't you forget this.

Don't you guys miss having girls around here?

Don't you think they're gonna figure out who wrote it?

Don't you want to do something about...?

Drop the annual.

Editor of the school annual, Cambridge bound,

Either I mistake your shape or making quite,

Else the Puck a liar call;

Encouraged Neil Perry to follow his obsession with acting

English.

Entitled "Understanding Poetry"?

Even if it kills me.

Even some of our own verse.

Even though it may seem silly or wrong, you must try.

Even though others may think them odd or unpopular.

Even though the herd may go, "That's baa d."

Ever since I can remember, I've wanted to try this.

Excrement.

Excuse me, I'm Neil's father. I need to see him.

Excuse me, please. Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Excuse me.

Exercising the right not to walk.

Father, I thought you'd gone.

Fellas, could you excuse us for a moment?

Fine.

Finked? I don't know what you're talking about.

First, I gotta get the part, then I can worry about that.

Five.

For lying so, Hermia, I do not lie.

For me, sport is actually a chance for us

For my purpose holds To sail beyond the sunset.

For the first time in my whole life, I know what I want to do.

For what we are about to receive, may the Lord make us truly grateful.

Four.

Free thinkers at 17?

Friday night at the Danburrys.

Friends of my dad's. They're probably in their 90s or something.

Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears.

Friends, scholars, Welton men.

From now on, call me Nuwanda.

From the moment we enter crying to the moment we leave dying,

Full of hormones, just like you.

Funny, I never pegged you as a cynic.

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may

Gather ye rosebuds while ye may Old time is still a flying:

Gentlemen, "Poetrusic," by Charles Dalton.

Gentlemen, can you keep a secret?

Gentlemen, open your texts to Page 21 of the introduction.

Gentlemen, the courtyard is yours.

Gentlemen, turn to page 21 of the introduction.

Gentlemen, what are the four pillars?

Gentlemen, what are the four pillars?

Gentlemen.

Gentles, do not reprehend: if you pardon, we will mend:

Getting red? What does that mean?

Give it to me. Give it to me.

Go ahead, captain. I'll walk.

Go ahead, go on in. It's my cave.

Go ahead, pass it around.

Go on, get some sleep.

Go on, lean in.

Go on. Make a clean tear. I want nothing left of it.

Go on. Rip it out.

Go on. Rip out the entire page.

Go to your Fido flambÈ for main course, and for dessert, a Pekingese parfait.

God help me.

God, you trying to smoke us out of here?

Good God, boy, there's a poet in you after all.

Good to see you again.

Gosh, they don't give you much room around here.

Got it, Ace?

Gotta do more. Gotta be more.

Gotta get in yawping stance.

Grab that book. I need...

Great job, Neil.

Great show, everyone.

Guys, move, move.

Has been teaching at the highly regarded Chester School in London.

Has nothing to do with going to business school or medical school.

Have you ever told your father what you just told me?

He didn't like it one bit,

He didn't put us up to anything. Neil loved acting.

He flatters me. That's why I help him with Latin.

He knew he'll get there one day.

He said something about getting red before we left.

He slit her bloody throat.

He starts walking around towards my left. Creak.

He wasn't happy.

He won't be able make it. He's in Chicago.

He won't know anything.

He wouldn't have. His dad was...

He'll just tell me to put it out of my mind for my own good.

He'll tell me that acting's a whim and I should forget it.

He's a rat! He's in it up to his eyes, so he ratted to save himself.

He's born with his foot in his mouth. You know what I mean?

He's good. He's really good.

He's great. He just did a big case for GM.

He's making me quit the play at Henley Hall.

He's right there, Charlie.

Hear it?

Hello?

Hello? Hello, Chris?

Hey, Chris.

Hey, I found his senior annual in the library.

Hey, I heard you got the new kid. Looks like a stiff. Ha, ha.

Hey, Spaz. Spaz.

Hey, would you not worry about your precious little neck?

Hey. Coming to the study group tonight?

Hi.

Himself an honors graduate of this school.

How are you gonna be in a play if your father won't let you?

How dare you?

How did you expect to get away with this?

How important is that objective?

How was dinner?

How was dinner?

Huddle up.

Huh?

Huh?

Hurry up, get off.

I am.

I appreciate this concern, but I'm not like you, all right?

I brought them up here to illustrate the point of conformity.

I brought you these and a poem I wrote for you.

I came for my personals.

I came to apologize for the other night.

I can feel it.

I can see his point. We're not a rich family like Charlie's.

I can't just forget her, Cameron. And I certainly can't think about trig.

I can't take it anymore. If I don't have Chris, I'm gonna kill myself.

I can't, Chris. I love you.

I didn't do it. I didn't write a poem.

I didn't memorize a poem. Move up.

I do. There's a young married couple,

I don't care if the world comes to an end tomorrow. You are through with that play.

I don't care.

I don't care. I don't give a damn about any of it.

I don't hear enough rips.

I don't know, but I've been told

I don't know, but I've been told

I don't know, but that's not the point.

I don't know, guys, it's starting to sound dangerous.

I don't know. Maybe.

I don't mind that your poem had a simple theme.

I don't really drink...

I don't really know Mutt.

I don't think he'll make the show,

I don't want to be anywhere else.

I doubt the present administration would look too favorably upon that.

I even tried to go to summer stock auditions last year,

I feel it.

I have a little secret for you. Huddle up.

I have here a detailed description of what occurred at your meetings.

I have to go. I'm gonna be late for the play.

I have to have dinner at the Danburrys' house tonight.

I hereby reconvene the Dead Poets Society.

I intend to conduct a thorough enquiry into this matter.

I jest to Oberon and make him smile

I just talked to my father.

I know that. What does it have to do with you?

I know this sounds impossible, but you have to talk to him.

I know what he'll say.

I know.

I made a great many sacrifices to get you here, Neil.

I mean, I haven't even gotten the part yet.

I mean, if I were ever going to buy a desk set twice,

I mean, who would want a football, or a baseball, or...?

I mean, why ruin our lives?

I mean, you guys didn't really think he could avoid responsibility, did you?

I need my notebook.

I published an article in the school paper in the name of the Dead Poets.

I said leave, Mr. Keating.

I see a sweetness in her smile.

I stand upon my desk to remind myself

I stand upon my desk to remind myself

I think that you're taking too many extracurricular activities this semester,

I think you have something inside of you that is worth a great deal.

I thought I'd surprise you.

I thought the idea of education was to learn to think for yourself.

I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference."

I want it gone, history. Leave nothing of it.

I want you all to come over here and take a slip of paper

I want you seated. Sit down.

I want you to hand these out to the boys, one apiece.

I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life."

I was good.

I would go to the beach

I would like you to compose a poem of your own. An original work.

I would like you to step forward over here

I would probably buy this one both times.

I wouldn't lose too much sleep over it.

I... Well, you know Charlie.

I'll be teaching this class through exams.

I'll now read the traditional opening message

I'll second that.

I'll walk you over.

I'll write one for you too, Gloria.

I'm giving up the name Charles Dalton.

I'm glad you could come by.

I'm gonna act.

I'm gonna play Puck. I'm gonna play Puck.

I'm hearing rumors, John,

I'm in.

I'm not saying they've had anything to do with the Dalton boy's outburst,

I'm one of the proofers. I slipped the article in.

I'm sorry. I didn't know you were here.

I'm to turn everybody in, apologize to the school,

I've got one that's even better than that.

I've only met her once, and already, she's thinking about me.

If a teacher asks you a question, you tell the truth or you're expelled.

If all we do is come together and read a bunch of poems to each other,

If Hermia meant to say Lysander lied.

If I don't ask him, at least I won't be disobeying him.

If it wasn't for Mr. Keating, Neil would be cozied up in his room right now

If the poem's score for perfection is plotted on the horizontal of a graph,

If the poem's score for perfection is plotted on the horizontal of a graph..."

If the poem's score for perfection is plotted on the horizontal of a graph..."

If they catch me, I'll tell them I made it up.

If they catch you, we're gonna be in trouble.

If you noticed, everyone started off with their own stride, their own pace.

If you question it, what's to prevent them from doing the same?

If you've nothing to add or amend, sign it.

In a mean abode in the Shanking road Lived a man named William Bloat;

In fact, I'd like to announce

In her first year, Welton Academy graduated five students.

In keeping with the spirit of passionate experimentation of the Dead Poets,

In the Pritchard?

Invincible, just like you feel.

Is inherently better than another.

Is it more of this...? This acting business?

Is it okay if we walk back?

Is one day going to stop breathing, turn cold and die.

Is that clear?

Is that clear?

Is worthless and embarrassing.

Is, uh...

Isn't that right, Todd? Isn't that your worst fear?

Isn't this the same desk...?

It shouldn't be that hard to put together.

It touched on one of the major themes: love.

It was a dark and rainy night.

It was hard giving it up, I can tell you.

It was Mr. Keating's blatant abuse of his position as teacher

It'll just cover your face as you wail and cry and scream.

It's a good effort.

It's all right, gentlemen.

It's all right.

It's all right. It's going to be all right.

It's an Indian warrior symbol for virility.

It's bad enough that you've wasted your time

It's beyond the stream. I know where it is.

It's every bit as tough as they say, unless you're a genius like Meeks.

It's fine for you to come into my school and make a complete fool out of me?

It's from a poem by Walt Whitman about Mr. Abraham Lincoln.

It's God. He says we should have girls at Welton.

It's just a bunch of jerks trying to impress Nolan.

It's Mutt Sanders' brother.

It's not the Bible. You're not gonna go to hell for this.

It's Nuwanda, Cameron.

It's open.

It's rather aerodynamic, isn't it?

It's right there. It's got to be like...

It's so beautiful.

It's too wet.

Join?

Just don't let your poems be ordinary.

Just forget it.

Just knowing that

Just knowing that...

Just replace these numbers here with X... For X and Y.

Just when you think you know something,

Keating, you stay away from my son.

Keep ripping, gentlemen.

Keep up the school work.

Keep your head about you.

Kindly inform me, Mr. Cameron.

Knox Overstreet.

Knox, don't you know that if Chet finds you here, he'll kill you?

Knox, you have got to stop this stuff.

Knox, you say that over and over.

Knox.

Knox. Knox, if it just so happens that I could care less about you...

Knoxious, you've gotta calm down.

Ladies and gentlemen, boys, the light of knowledge.

Last year, we graduated 51.

Laughing, crying, tumbling, mumbling.

Leave, Mr. Keating.

Leave, Mr. Keating.

Left, halt.

Left, left, left, right, left.

Let me urge you now not to test me on this point.

Let's do it again.

Let's go, boys.

Let's go, boys. Hustle up in here. That means you, Dalton.

Let's go, let's go, come on.

Let's go.

Lie further off; in human modesty,

Like a cat, or a flower, or rain.

Like father, like son, huh?

Like if nothing else, the opportunity to attend my classes.

Listen to this: Captain of the soccer team,

Listen, Chet's parents are going out of town this weekend

Listen, don't mind Cameron.

Look, all I'm saying is that we have to be careful.

Look, I have to go find Chet.

Look, in case you hadn't heard, Dalton,

Look, you follow the stream to the waterfall.

Lysander riddles very prettily:

Made weak by time and fate But strong in will

Make your lives extraordinary.

Makes it a little difficult.

Makes me feel potent. Like it can drive girls crazy.

Maybe they thought you needed another one.

Maybe they weren't thinking about anything at all.

McAllister: Grass is garment or herbal.

McAllister: Slow down, boys.

Me and Pitts are working on a hi fi system.

Meeks aced Latin, I didn't quite flunk English.

Meeks, put your coat down. Picnic blanket.

Meeks. Another unusual name.

Meet in her aspect and her eyes;

Meet, uh, Gloria and...

Mmm. Chris.

Mom.

Mr. Anderson thinks that everything inside of him

Mr. Anderson, I see you sitting there in agony.

Mr. Anderson, I think we've pretty well put together what's happened here.

Mr. Anderson?

Mr. Anderson? Come on, are you a man or an amoeba?

Mr. Anderson.

Mr. Cameron, you could see him thinking,

Mr. Cameron, you could see him thinking,

Mr. Dalton, you be joining us?

Mr. Hopkins, you may agree with him, thinking,

Mr. Hopkins, you were laughing. You're up.

Mr. Keating put us up to all this crap, didn't he?

Mr. Keating responsible for Neil?

Mr. Keating.

Mr. Meeks, time to inherit the earth.

Mr. Nolan, it's for you.

Mr. Overstreet, I warn you. Sit down.

Mr. Overstreet's, driven by deeper force.

Mr. Perry, will you read the opening paragraph of the preface,

Mr. Perry?

Mr. Pitts, rise above your name.

Mr. Pitts, taking his time.

Mr. Pitts, will you open your hymnal to page 542?

Mr. Pitts.

Mumbling truth. Truth, like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold.

My barbaric

My parents made me take the clarinet for years.

My parents will kill me.

My word.

Naturally, they're all quite concerned.

Neighing in likeness of a filly foal.

Neil, how are you gonna do this?

Neil, I've just spoken to Mr. Nolan.

Neil, Neil, hold on.

Neil, what's up?

Neil!

Neil?

Neil?

Neil?

Neil.

Neil. Neil.

Neil. Neil. Mr. Perry, come on.

Neil. Neil. You have the gift.

Neil. That's your cue, Neil.

Neil's dead.

Next time I see you, you die.

Next. Louder.

No grades at stake, gentlemen. Just take a stroll.

No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world.

No relation. Never heard of him. Sorry, guys.

No, Charlie.

No, I can't. I have the main part. The performance is tomorrow night.

No, I don't have a problem. Neil, I just...

No, it's part of the monastic oath.

No, nobody...

No, sir.

No, sir. Science experiment.

No, that's not me.

No, the smoke's going right up this opening.

No, this is the god of the cave.

No, you're not.

No!

No? Ginny Danburry's here.

No.

No.

No. I...

No. We'll not have that here. No more of Mr. J. Evans Pritchard.

Not a bad way to spend an evening, eh?

Not a clue?

Not a cynic.

Nothing Mr. Keating has to say means shit to you, does it, Todd?

Nothing they didn't already know.

Nothing?

Nothing? What do you mean, nothing?

Nothing.

Nothing. But I did it.

Now describe what you see.

Now much beshrew my manners and my pride,

Now to 'scape the serpent's tongue, We will make amends ere long;

Now,

Now, devotees may argue that one sport or game

Now, for those of you who don't know, a yawp is a loud cry or yell.

Now, go on.

Now, he had a wife The plague of his life

Now, how the hell is old Mutt anyway?

Now, I see that look in Mr. Pitts' eye, like 19th century literature

Now, I want you to find your own walk right now.

Now, I want you to rip out that page.

Now, in addition to your essays,

Now, in my class, you will learn to think for yourselves again.

Now, in this class, you can either call me Mr. Keating,

Now, just to review,

Now, language was developed for one endeavor, and that is?

Now, let me dispel a few rumors so they don't fester into facts.

Now, listen, you need anything, you let us know, huh?

Now, many of you have seen Shakespeare done very much like this:

Now, remember, keep your shoulders back.

Now, those of you, I see the look in your eyes like,

Now, Todd, I would like you to give us a demonstration of a barbaric yawp.

Now, tomorrow, you go to them and you tell them that you're quitting.

Now, who knows what that means?

Now, who's next?

Now, you don't get away that easy. There's a picture of Uncle Walt up there.

O Captain! my Captain!

O me! O life! Of the questions of these recurring;

O to have life henceforth A poem of new joys

O to struggle against great odds To meet enemies undaunted.

O to struggle against great odds To meet enemies undaunted.

O while I live to be the ruler of life Not a slave.

O, Titus, bring your friend hither.

Of cloudless climes and starry skies
