Summary and AnalysisWelton Academy was a conservative prep school, and consisted of all boys. Mr. Keating who was a new English teacher taught the students poetry in a creative way. He inspired the students to think for themselves, and the students established the Dead Poet’s Society，in which they could write poetry without limitation. However, Neil had a conflict with his father about performing the plays. After he committed suicide, the school dismissed the Dead Poet’s Society, and fired Mr. Keating. But the students respected Mr. Keating in their ways.
I was impressed with this film, especially Mr. Keating. I could catch a glimpse of the American teaching style that is thinking for myself.
