Knowing that Todd is the most sensitive and fragile of the group, I like the way the group of friends followed him outside in the snow at a short distance, very much concerned about the way he's going to react at Neil's death, and when Todd suddenly collapses on the ground, the comfort is immediate, friendship is such a wonderful thing, and it's precisely what I love in this particular scene....

Ethan was feeling weird about his lines in the snow. The director said “Okay. You can _not_ say the lines but you have to make me _think_ you said them.” So he came up with delivering them hysterically like that, in a rush because they had that snow falling and unspoiled and the director wanted to use the beautiful snow scene they weren’t expecting. So that scene was quite unplanned.

We don't know where Neil's father came from or what he overcame in order to be able to send his son to one of the most prestigious and expensive prep schools in the country. There are people who have been in Neil's shoes who have instead of committing suicide made it their charter to sacrifice as Neil's dad did so their son or daughter could be whatever they wanted to be. That would have been a wiser decision from Neil. No one is ultimately responsible for killing Neil but Neil.

Everyone talks about Todd, but the part that hits me the most is Keating’s reaction, without a word, we see his heart torn up, he sees just how much influence he had, how important he was to Neil, even though it wasn’t his fault, there’s a part of him deep down that might blame himself for what happens

You really can see the breakthrough in their relationship. Around Todd, Neil can be who he truly is, be carefree, to love and be loved.

Robin William's was going through a neurodegenerative disease that was taking his personality away from him, which caused him great deals of anxiety, stress, and confusion. It wasn't the type of depression people commonly talk about. He didn't kill himself because of a lack of support. He killed himself because he couldn't bear the burden of his disease.

It's tragic irony. The shy one ultimately stood up to his domineering force, while the outgoing one ultimately couldn't stand up to his domineering force.

Neil reinforced Todd when he was down. Neil loved acting, he got to view it and see it, he was deprived from acting he even cried when his father banned him from acting in the play he had already been elected to do. However he still goes ahead and acts in the play; he was given a taste and so therefore he was placed with a scene, in which he saw the possibility of making it big. Todd saw the snow and he admires it even saying “It’s so beautiful.” he admired it and when he realized neil was not there to enjoy the snow with them he faced reality and therefore plummeted to the ground in disgust, but charlie goes and stuffs snow in his mouth to calm him down. This only awakens Todd’s delusion of Neil being around and even says something that is impossible but true at the same time “It was his father” That is when he stumbles away and walks by himself to contemplate. Both of these things have the same process- and I think it is significant in this way(but this is only my opinion) ; u ;

Neil's suicide hits me especially today with Robin Willams' suicide

No one can say you didn't live, Mr. Williams. I hope you're somewhere nice now.

the world needs to watch this movie

the poor kid just wanted to be in a freaking play

R.I.P., Robin Williams. Yesterday was supposed to be his birthday. Last night, I was watching "Dead Poets Society" and was bawling my eyes out. I went through an entire box of tissues crying, sniffling, and blowing my nose. Maybe it's a mixture of how hard this year & especially the past few months have been for me. Maybe it's because right now, I truly feel like Robert Sean Leonard, Ethan Hawke, and Robin William's characters combined in this movie. I've seen this movie so many times in my life. I saw this movie in English class in high school. I have the DVD & VHS to this movie. After I first saw this movie, I had a big crush on Robert Sean Leonard. I was thrilled when he was on 'House, M.D." with Hugh Laurie on TV. It was just sad how Robert Sean Leonard as Neil - how his voice wasn't heard by his Dad. His Dad only cared about his son going to Harvard and being a medical doctor that he didn't care to hear his son out and listen to what his son wanted. He didn't care about his son's happiness. He only cared about his son living the Dad's dreams, and not his own, and how he looked to impress society. He didn't listen to his son's heart, thoughts, and passions. I was also frustrated how Neil's Mom was silent and didn't speak up for Neil and let the Dad - her husband - make all the decision. Marriages and relationships are supposed to be an equal partnership. It shouldn't be one person dictating and making all the decisions. It's very unbalanced and one sided. Neil's Mom's voice was very silent. And she didn't protect or help her son. This is what happens when one person makes all the rules and doesn't take the time hear other people out and include them & their thoughts & feelings in their decisions. There have been times when I felt some people - online and in real life just railroaded me and didn't take the time, patience, consideration, care, & heart to truly and completely hear me out. In some ways, I do feel like Neil when some people in real life and online just railroad me, force things on me, and tell me that things have to be their way or the highway. It's unhappiness when you don't take the time to hear the other person out and apply patience, time, consideration, compassion, and empathy with them. I don't work with deadlines or timelines in personal friendships & relationships. I think Neil was the same way. Neil was railroaded by his Dad. His Dad only thought of himself. I know that many people in this world have had parents or a parent force them to study fields such as Medicine, Law, Engineering, etc., and tell them that they sent them to all these private & Ivy League schools to have the best of everything. But I think many people FAIL to take the time to truly hear and listen to what the people they care about want. If you care, like, or love someone - you need to take the time to communicate with them, and hear them out. If you don't, sometime tragic thing happen - such as the suicide of Neil, played by Robert Sean Leonard. Robin Williams died of suicide. If I had to travel back in time - I would have liked to have talked to Robin Williams and for him to tell me all the things that made him sad - just anything that was on his mind before he left this Earth. I don't judge or think any less of any person who has died from suicide. I think most people who have died from suicide are highly intelligent, sensitive, caring, generous souls with truly kind hearts. Many times it just came to the point that they felt so many feelings and were overwhelmed by things or they felt trapped where they felt hardly anybody was truly listening to them. Anyways, I can see the frustration that Neil and also Ethan Hawke's character had. Most people, including me, want to have our voices heard. And it's frustrating when our voices aren't heard. Anyways, "Dead Poets Society" is a great movie. I highly recommend this movie for this who haven't watched this film.

I wish I could say that anything about these scenes seems false or overdone. It's not. I've been there.

the part where Todd runs with the “as the world caves in song” would kill me

delivers a double blow, this scene

this scene hurts me so much, and not just because of the crying and the support and the pain of losing ones best friend as well as one of the members of their family. But also because of the deleted scene with Todd and Neil at the dock rehearsing lines and just being together, hanging out and having fun, the same dock that Todd runs to immediately after being told about Neil. It's such a contrast from the happy atmosphere of that scene to the sad and lonely one in this one.

Theres a lot of Neil/Todd subtext...

We were watching this in English class last month and everyone in that class is a mindless un-inspired idiot that only cares about the trends of today. When it got to this scene, I was on the verge of crying, something I never do in school (it would be embarrassing), but the emotional depth of this scene was interrupted when a couple stupid boys started talking about how Todd looked like someone they knew. I couldn't hear what the characters were saying and I got so ticked off. Thank you for posting this scene, I finally got to cry over it, and how symbolic it is to Robin Williams death.

However, I understand you because I was pretty much the only person watching Of Mice and Men in my english class when our teacher put up the movie because everyone else wouldn't shut their mouths.

I've often watched this film, and it aired the morning of Robin's own suicide. Ironically, I came in at the scene where Mr. Keating is crying over Neil's death. It's a fairly safe bet that Robin was already gone by that time, but the world had yet to find out about it.

You are greatly missed my Captain. Godspeed you wonderful soul :(

After I watched this movie, I lied awake at night reflecting on life. I was in shock. I love this movie but can't bring myself to watch it again.

How profound to see this clip TODAY after Robin Williams' apparent suicide. This topic hits home hard.

Still makes me cry to this day... like now for this instance

Cameron wasn’t there to comfort Todd. Kind of goes to show what kind of a “friend” he was.

No matter how many times I've seen this movie, I cry like a baby.

I just love how he sees that open space out there and just has so much emotion he runs and eventually just keeps walking. As if Neil is out there in the snow somewhere

the only movie ever that i’ve cried to still

No doubt one of the greatest films ever made

I just watched this movie for the first time and it went from a happy being brave movie to a sad, depressing movie. It shocked me in all honesty.

I cried when Robin started crying. This movie is just much more heart-wrenchingly sad because of the way Robin left :(

Thank you, Peter Weir, for making this extraordinary and beautiful film. Truly a master work that will live through the ages, and continue to inspire the next generation.

Great film! RIP O' Captain my Captain

Poetry made in a movie! My favorite forever!!

Neil is continuing his acting in heaven

Two things: 1) OMG- when Keating starts crying...I just can't...

I saw this movie for the first time in my college Comp 1 class. I was crying like a baby and trying desperately to hide it because I was the only one who had never seen it before (and the only one crying)...

Bawling my eyes out seems to be a regular occurrence ever since i watched dead poets society last friday. RIP Neil and RIP oh Captain my Captain, hope you're both happy and in peace together, and hope all your unfulfilled dreams came true up there.

Peter Weir is a MASTER of the "movie score". The music in his movies are just haunting!

1:25 this scene is so fucking powerful, ethan hawke is an amazing ass actor and his performance in dps astounds me

I cried my eyes out when I saw this scene poor Neil 😢

I watched this movie in my English class, everyone was crying but it was such a beautiful movie.❤️🖤

I still cry over this scene. I cried leaving the movie theater after seeing the movie for the first time. Robin Williams was magnificent in this role. His best role ever. So inspiring to these young men. Carpe diem. Oh Captain my Captain. I loved the final scene when the boys stood on their desks saying this in tribute to their beloved teacher and mentor.

This scene, right here, broke my heart.

There’s little more in the world that hurts me more than seeing Robin crying.

I lost one of my best friends too young and this acted as a catharsis for me. I didn't have a group of friends so I buried it for too long. Thank you to filmmakers who put so much work into making films and scenes like this.

1:19-1:28 gets me every time, I ball like a baby

My best friend in College committed suicide. I remember finding out that night, my reaction was fairly similar to Todd's

Honesly this was the first movie that made me cry

Robin Williams crying about the suicide... Were his tears caused by the contemplation of his own suicidal thoughts? Granted this is years before it happened, but perhaps there is more to it than what we see in those few seconds

A 1979 TV Guide article called "A Morked Woman" in which his "Mork & Mindy" co-star Pam Dawber was interviewed mentions in its first paragraph that Robin faked hanging himself during a rehearsal, there were quite a few references to suicide in many of his films, in "The Angriest Man in Brooklyn", his character, who is dying claims he wanted his birth and death dates to read "1951-2014" as Robin's now do, and his self-titled comedy tour, "Weapons of Self Destruction" seems even more ominous in hindsight. I'd have to conclude he was long predisposed to take his own life. But sadly, were he still here, he would most likely be in a chronic care facility and in the grip of Lewy Body dementia with perhaps only a year or so left to live at this point. I couldn't regret his killing himself more.But who would want him alive and suffering in the way he most likely would be?

mörder house in my soup

You watch the whole movie to figure out how heartbroken "yawp" is.

I wish I had friends like them, a true friend is hard to find as these days everything is materialistic, this scene makes me cry in silence 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

lmaoo im sorry but the “NO” 1:31

The most beautiful moment EVER. I love the way that shows us the friendship. I think that this movie have to watch it every teenager in every country on the world. I remember the first time that I watch this movie, after that I have change me believes and I just live in now and don't think about the future. I just SEIZE THE DAY.

It would've been great if Neil's dad would've been confronted and got his comeuppance over what happened there. It's too bad movies don't always give us what we want.

Oh damn. This has just become the most eerily depressing vid on youtube :( Oh captain, my captain, we know your pain.

im watching this in my english class and my teacher said there was a suicide in the movie so I had to watch it and cry now so I wouldn't cry in class

Real man will cry in this movie

Incredible acting

When that soft music comes in... I immediately get teary eyed. Every time.

Me and My boyfriend were watching this and I was crying my eyes out and he just sat there and chuckled. HOW COULD HE BE SO HEARTLESS!!!!

It's hard to put things into perspective when you're young. Several years ago, a co-worker of mine took her own life just hours after her boyfriend broke up with her. She was 28.

Hawk and Williams conveyed the shock of death from each of their characters perspectives so well, incredible.

It still irritates me of how they didn’t include the scene where Neil and Todd rehearsed Neil’s play together at the dock, partially or most likely explaining why Todd ran there as Neil’s death settles in. When they rehearsed together, it kind of showed how Neil encouraged Todd to have more courage himself. And Neil’s death led Todd to become stronger, like how he stood on his desk as one last goodbye to dear Mr. Keating.

Watched this movie in my junior year English class. I saw kids you’d never expect to be emotional at a film be physically upset at this movie. This scene was the one that had just about everyone in the classroom teary-eyed. In a classroom full of people not even really caring about the class they were forced to take, this movie affected them. And that honestly is beautiful

R.I.P Robin Williams, you will be missed by many!!!

Finding a good friend is just as hard as finding a true love. Probably even harder to find.

I think everyone was my friend. Because I love and I'm stupid and a disabled woman and a idiot savant woman and I got lead poisoning from 30 years of my favorite china. Ptsd and tourette episodes preclude work and a husband. I love unreciprocated love

Even after all these years this scene still hits hard.
