What really started out as a 'memorable scenes' only section soon turned out into a plot summary and excerpt for the whole film, because I realised that practically all the scenes were worthy of mention! My favourite parts have been excerpted in full! Story and all quotes and excerpts from the film itself, while the extra scenes are courtesy of a website dedicated to Peter Weir films, 'Dead Poets Society' by Crazy Dave. Enjoy...
Film starts at the start on a new semester with an inauguration ceremony for the new students. Procession consist of vicar, almunus, bagpiper and four present students carrying banners, representing the 4 pillars of Welton Academy: Cameron-Tradition, Knox-Honor, Charlie-Discipline and Neil-Excellence. New English Literature professor, Dr John Keating introduced.
Todd, a transfer student from Ballen Crest, shares dorms with Neil. At Neil's room, Charlie and gang repeat the 4 pillars of Hell-ton - Travesty, Horror, Decadence and Excrement. Mr Perry pulls Neil out of school annuals against his wishes.
Extra scenes- Neil talks with Todd alone in his room.
"Todd, if you're going to make it around here you've got to speak up. The meek might inherit the earth but they don't make it into Harvard." - Neil
At Nolan's office, protagonists are informed of their ECAs. Todd tries in vain to switch from soccer to rowing.
Lessons start. Chemistry teacher dishes out homework. Maths teacher, Dr Hager warns of demerits if homework is not handed up. Finally Literature lesson. Class waits for new teacher.
Keating whistles while strolling in, and out again. "Come on now!", he urges as he pops his head back through the door. Class is led to hall.
"O Captain, my Captain. Who knows where that comes from? Anybody? Not a clue? It's from a poem by Walt Whitman about Mr. Abraham Lincoln. Now in this class you can either call me Mr. Keating, or if you're slightly more daring, O Captain my Captain." - Keating
Keating then asks Pitts ("Rather unfortunate name!" - Keating) to read Robert Herrick's 'To the Virgins, Make Much of Time' ("Rather inappropriate here, won't you say!?" - Keating).
"Gather ye rosebuds while ye may... Now why did Robert Herrick write these lines?" - Keating
"Because he's in a hurry!" - Charlie
"Wrong! Twairrr!" - Keating
Keating tells class about 'Carpe Diem'(Kar-Pay-Dime) which Meeks("Another unusual name!" - Keating) translates to 'Seize The Day', and asks them to take a closer look at the photographs of alumnus.
"Now I'd like you to step forward over here. They're not that different from you, are they? Same haircuts. Full of hormones, just like you. Invincible, just like you feel. The world is their oyster. They believe they're destined for great things, just like many of you, their eyes are full of hope, just like you. Did they wait until it was too late to make from their lives even one iota of what they were capable? Because, you see gentlemen, these boys are now fertilizing daffodils. But if you listen real close, you can hear them whisper their legacy to you. Go on, lean in. Listen, you hear it? --- Carpe --- hear it? --- Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary." - Keating
After class, the gang talk about Keating's methods.
"Weird but fresh!" - Neil
"Spooky!" - Charlie
"Will we be tested on this!?" - Cameron
During shower, Knox tells the rest he can't join them later as he has dinner with the Danburrys, a family friend. Dr Hager drives Knox to Danburrys, where Chris answers the door. Knox develops a crush on her.
Extra Scene- (Very important plot links found here!) Knox is introduced to Ginny Danburry(Lara Flynn Boyle, I think this is her only scene!) and Chet Danburry. Knox chats with Ginny and Chris while Chet tries to talk his dad into lending him his car. Knox finds out Chris is with Ridgeway High football cheerleaders(where she met Chet), which explains how Knox knew where to bike to find her later. Chris also mentioned Henley High(sister school of Welton), where Ginny is at, staging 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'. This foreshadows Neil's later discovery. Lastly, Knox spies Chet and Chris kissing in the car after leaving the house, hence he later tells the rest at the study group "...she is practically engaged to Chet!"
Keating brings the class to the field. Each student is given a verse and asked to recite(dramatic) it before kicking the football.
"Sports are a chance for us to make other human beings push us to excel." - Keating
"O to struggle against great odds, to meet enemies undaunted!" - Pitts
"To dance, clap hands, exalt, shout, skip, roll on, float on." - Meeks
"O the half life of, heads forth the poem of new joy!" - Hopkins
"To indeed be a God!" - Charlie
Keating asks Neil to read J. Evans Pritchard's Introduction to Poetry. As Neil reads, Keating sketches a graph of Importance against Perfection, the area-finding method used to evaluate poems described by Pritchard. Cameron copies the graph neatly in his notes. After Neil finishes, Keating suddenly lambasts Pritchard's rating system as excrement! Cameron is stunned but quickly cancels the graph in his notes.
"You can't measure the greatness of poetry by measuring its importance and its perfection in rhyme and meter!" - Keating
"I want you to rip out that page! Yes, rip it out! Rip! Rip! Rip! Rip out that whole chapter on Introduction as well. Rip it out! Rip! We shall have none of J. Evans Pritchard in this class." - Keating
Charlie who hasn't been paying much attention to the lesson suddenly stirs up some interest. A prolonged 'rip!' was heard from the back of the class. The students turn to see Charlie holding up the torn page in his hand triumphantly.
"Thank you Mr Dalton." - Keating
Mr MacAllister spots the chaos as he walks by and enters the class to demand to know what's happening. The class freezes. At this moment, Keating returns from the store with a wastepaper basket and instructs the class to carry on ripping. Mr MacAllister leaves slightly bemused.
"This is a battle, a war, and the casualties could be your hearts and souls." - Keating
At the cafeteria, Mr MacAllister reminds Keating of the dangers of his methods.
"I never saw you as a cynic." - Keating
"No, not a cynic, but a realist." - Mr MacAllister
"Show me a man unfettered by foolish dreams and I'll show you a happy man." - Mr MacAllister
"But only in their dreams can men be truly free,
'Twas always thus, and always thus will be." - Keating
"Tennyson?" - Mr MacAllister
"No, Keating!" - Keating
Elsewhere in the cafeteria, Neil shows an old school annual to the rest. A note beside Keating's old photograph mentions that he was part of the Dead Poets Society.
Extra Scene- Mr Nolan joins their table and asked for their opinions of Mr Keating, mentioning that he was a Rhodes scholar. As Mr Nolan walks off, Charlie follows the irony by imitating Keating.
"Carry on." - Mr Nolan
"(When Mr Nolan walks off) Carry on ripping!" - Charlie
"Rip! Rip! Rip!" - All
After the meal, the students approach Keating outside the school. Neil finally gets his attention by calling him "O Captain, My Captain". He shows Keating the old annual and asks about DPS.
"You mean it was just a bunch of grown men reading poetry!?" - Knox
"No Mr Overstreet. We were romantics! Gods were created, women swooned and spirits soared!" - Keating
However before he ends, Keating seems to want them to forget about DPS.
"Thank you chaps for this trip down memory lane. But go burn it please, especially the photograph." - Keating
As they run back into the school. Neil gets excited and starts rounding up people to attend a DPS meeting. Charlie agrees at once. Cameron is afraid but agrees out of peer pressure. Meeks("I'll try anything once!") and Pitts are in too. While Knox is convinced by Charlie.
"I don't know..." - Knox
"Common on! It'll help you get credits!" - Charlie
"How!?" - Knox
"Remember!? '...women swooned...'!" - Charlie
"But why!? Why do women swoon!? (As he chases after Charlie) Why?" - Knox
During Dr Hager's class, Neil asks Todd along. Todd wants in but feels uncomfortable with having to read poems there. Neil asks the rest and that's okay and Todd is in too. That night, Neil discovers a poetry book "Five Centuries of Verse" had been left in his room by Keating. It is the book used at DPS meetings and Neil decides to bring it along. After Dr Hager retires to his room, the group don windbreakers and sneak off to the cave in the woods near the stream, where they held the first DPS meeting. Neil opens with an excerpt from "On Walden Pond" by Henry David Thoreau, marked in the book as to be read at the start of each DPS meeting.
"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life. To put to rout all that was not life, and not when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived." - Neil
Later during the DPS meeting. Neil recites a story.
"It was a dark and rainy night. And this old lady who had a passion for jigsaw puzzles sat by herself in her house at her table to complete a new jigsaw puzzle. As she pieced the puzzle together, she realized to her astonishment that the image that was formed was her very own room, and the figure in the center of the puzzle, as she completed it, was herself. And with trembling hands she placed the last four pieces and stared in horror at the face of the demented madman at the window. The last thing that this old lady ever heard was the sound of breaking glass." - Neil
Cameron tries to say his version of the madman story but is laughed off. Pitts then recited "Ballad of William Bloat" by Raymond Calvert. Charlie stood up and unveiled an insert from Playboy and read a poem from there. Meeks ended the meeting with "The Congo" by Vachel Lindsay, which sends them back chanting and beating drums.
Keating lectures the class on poetry.
"...don't use 'very tired', use 'exhausted'. Don't use 'very sad', use... use... Mr Overstreet!? You twerp!?" - Keating
"Morose!?" - Knox
"Morose! Yes, morose. Language was invented for one endevour... which is... Mr Anderson!? Are you Man or Amoeba!?" - Keating
"..." - Todd
"Mr Perry!?" - Keating
"To communicate?" - Neil
"No! To woo women!" - Keating
"Tell you a secret. Huddle up!" - Keating
"We don't read and write poetry because it's cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion. And medicine, law, business, engineering, these are noble pursuits and necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for. To quote from Whitman, 'O me! O life!... of the questions of these recurring; of the endless trains of the faithless -- of cities filled with the foolish; what good amid these, O me, O life?' Answer. That you are here -- that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?'" - Keating
Keating then stands on his desk to illustrate the need to see things in a different perspective.
"Why do I stand on my desk?" - Keating
"To feel taller!?" - Charlie
"Wrong! Twairrr! Thank you for playing!" - Keating
"You don't believe me, come see for yourself. Come on. Just when you think you know something, you have to look at it in another way even though it may seem silly, or wrong, you must try." - Keating
Keating then asks the class to take turns stepping on his desk to have a look. Charlie and Neil are enthusiastic as usual. Bell rings. As he walks off, Keating instructs the class to write a poem each, to be recited infront of everyone on Monday. Amids groans, Keating plays with the light switch to simulate the horror element. And just as Todd, the last person, was about to step off the desk, Keating pops back with this for him, before leaving the class in darkness.
"Mr Anderson! Don't think I don't know this assignment scares the hell out of you!" - Keating
Todd is in his room busily preparing the poem. Neil enters and throws him a pamphlet. It regards the Henley Hall play 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'. Neil says excitedly that he is going to audition for the play. Todd reminds him of his father's disapproval, and that he will not go for DPS meeting again. Neil then tries to stir up Todd by snatching his poem and reading it out, while Todd chases him around the room. When Cameron enters to complain, his poem is also snatched away by Neil. Total chaos in the room as Charlie joins in the fun.
Monday class, Knox recites his poem.
"To Chris,
I see a sweetness in her smile.
Bright light shines from her eyes.
My life is complete,
Content is thy mind,
Just knowing that she's alive." - Knox
The class sniggers and Knox retreats shame-faced. Keating and Charlie provide scant encouragement for him. Keating notes Hopkins laughed the loudest and brings him up next.
"The cat sat on the mat." - Hopkins
Hopkins returns to his seat quite pleased with himself thinking that he had made a fool of the assignment. Instead Keating compliments it, making him guilty. Todd was next to be called.
Keating then calls Todd to read his poem.
"Ah, I see Mr Anderson sitting there in agony. Let me put you out of your misery! Come on now, show the class what you've got!" - Keating
"I don't have a poem! I didn't do one!" - Todd
"Mr. Andersen thinks that everything inside of him is worthless and embarrassing, isn't that right Todd, isn't that your worst fear? Well I think you're wrong, I think you have something inside of you that is worth a great deal. (Begins writing on blackboard.) 'I sound my barbaric YAWP over the rooftops of the world.' W. W. Uncle Walt again. Now for those of you who don't know, a yawp is a loud cry or yell. Now Todd, I would like you to give us a demonstration of a barbaric yawp. Come on, you can't yawp sitting down, let's go on, come on, up, gotta get in yawping stance." - Keating
Then he stirs Todd up with a picture of Walt Whitman and Todd finally recites a beautiful poem.
"I close my eyes and this image floats beside me.
The sweaty-toothed madman with a stare that pounds my brains
His hands reach out and choke me
And all the time he's mumbling Truth, like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold.
You push it, stretch it, it will never be enough
Kick it beat it, it will never cover any of us
From the moment we enter crying, to the moment we leave dying, it will just cover your face as you wail and cry and scream." - Todd
Knox bikes off to see Chris. He spots her near the Ridgeway High football team coach with the rest of cheerleaders. However, he is again disappointed when Chet arrives and hugs her up the coach.
Keating asks Cameron, Pitts and Knox to walk in a circle around the courtyard. Slowly they get in step and the class joins in clapping and singing. Keating explains the dangers of conformity.
"Now, when you read, don't just consider what the author thinks, consider what you think. Strive to find your own voice, the longer you wait to begin, the less likely you are to find it at all." - Keating
"As Robert Frost says - '...two roads lead off into the woods, and I took the one less travelled by, and that has made all the difference.'" - Keating
Keating then instructs the students to find their own walk around the courtyard. All the students start off enthusiastically except Charlie, who stands alone at a corner as usual.
"Mr Dalton! Would you like to join us?" - Keating
"No sir! Just exercising my right not to walk!" - Charlie
"My point precisely." - Keating
DPS meeting. Everyone is smoking pipe. Knox is troubled by Chris and the rest make fun of him. Neil arrives with a statuette under a lampshade which he proclaims as the god of the cave. Charlie recites a poem while playing his sax. Knox suddenly exclaims he can't stand it anymore and runs off to call Chris. The rest cheer in encouragement and follow him.
Back in the school, Knox stands undecided at the phone with the rest looking on.
"Carpe Diem. Even if it kills me." - Knox
He finally summons up enough courage to call her and is thrilled when she invites him along to a party at Chet's place.
Neil returns to the dorm from the audition in high spirits. He tells everyone excitedly that he got the lead role of Puck. Back in his room, Neil starts typing a letter to Mr Nolan in the name of his father, giving him permission to take part in the play. Todd again reminds him it's wrong and suggests he ask Mr Perry first. Neil consoles himself that he won't know about it.
Knox arrives well-dressed at Chet's party. He is disappointed when Chris carries on enjoying herself and doesn't pay much attention to him. In the kitchen, he takes a few drinks after being mistaken for someone's brother. He then trods to the couch intoxicated and is surprised to find Chris lying drunk beside him. He tries to touch her and is spotted by Chet who beats him up severely. Chris comes to his rescue.
Elsewhere at the DPS meeting, Charlie arrives with two girls, whom he introduces as Gloria and ...Tina. He proclaims that from now on, he shall be known as Nwanda. Eventually, Nwanda reveals that he has secretly published an article in the school newletter in the name of DPS demanding girls be admitted to Welton. Everyone gets a fit and an argument starts. Nwanda promises to everyone that he will not betray DPS if questioned.
General assembly in chapel, as opening scene. Staff and students are all present. Mr Nolan angrily demands the author of the defamatory article to own up before he is found and expelled. A loud phone ringing is then heard over the deathly silence. Nwanda stands up with a phone in hand.
'Welton Academy, hello. Yes he is. Just a moment. (To Mr Nolan) Mr Nolan, it's for you! It's God! He says we should have girls at Welton!' - Nwanda
Nwanda gets a butt swanking in Mr Nolan's office. The rest are concerned when he returns limping to his room.
"So did you get kicked out?" - Neil
"No." - Nwanda
"Then what happened?" - Neil
"(As he shuts the door) I have to say the names of the others and write an apology, or get expelled." - Nwanda
"So what!? Charlie!?" - Neil
"Damn you Neil! It's Nwanda." - Nwanda
Extra Scene- Neil goes to Henley Hall for practice. Later, Neil and Todd recite lines and talk as they walk toward the wharf. Neil talks about his love for acting.
Mr Nolan interrupts Keating and Mr MacAllister in the lounge. He questions Keating about his methods and warns that there shouldn't be any more trouble from his students.
Nwanda is proudly relating his experience to everyone in the den. Keating enters and admonishes him.
"What! Even you're on Nolan's side too!? I thought you told us to suck the marrow out of life!?" - Nwanda
"Sucking the marrow out of life doesn't mean choking on the bone. There is a time for daring and a time for caution, and a wise man knows which is called for." - Keating
"You getting expelled is not something to be proud of. I think it's something stupid. Think of the opportunities you'll miss." - Keating
"Yah, opportunities like what!?" - Nwanda
"If anything, you'll miss the opportunity to attend my interesting lessons!" - Keating
"Aye aye, Captain!" - Nwanda
"And the same goes for the rest of you." - Keating
"Yes Captain!" - All
"(As he leaves) Phone call from God?! If it had been collect, that would have been daring!" - Keating
Neil spots Todd sitting quietly by himself on the bridge and approaches him.
"What's going on?" - Neil
"Today's my birthday." - Todd
"Is today your birthday? Happy birthday. What did you get?" - Neil
"My parents gave me this." - Todd
"Isn't that the same deskset..." - Neil
"Yeah, they gave me the same thing as last year." - Todd
"Oh." - Neil
"Oh." - Todd
"Maybe they thought you needed another one." - Neil
"Maybe they weren't thinking about anything at all. Funny thing is about this is I didn't even like it the first time." - Todd
"Todd, I think you're underestimating the value of this deskset. I mean who would want a football or a baseball..." - Neil
"Or a car." - Todd
"Hmmm, or a car, if they could have a deskset as wonderful as this? If I were ever going to buy a deskset, twice, I would probably buy this one, both times. In fact, it's shape is, it's rather aerodynamic isn't it. You can feel it, this deskset wants to fly. Todd? (hands deskset to Todd) The world's first unmanned flying deskset. (Todd chucks the deskset over the edge of the bridge and it falls to pieces down below.) Oh my! Well I wouldn't worry, you'll get another next year. (Both laugh)" - Neil
After returning happily from a rehearsal, Neil is shocked to find his father waiting in his room. Mr Perry lectures Neil and demands that he pull out of the play.
Extra Scene- Meanwhile at the cafeteria, Nwanda and the rest are eating spaghetti with their left hands.
"Mr. Dalton!?" - Dr Hager
"Sir?" - Nwanda
"Are you gentlemen all normally left handed?" - Dr Hager
"No sir." - All
"Then why are you eating with your left hands?" - Dr Hager
"We thought it would be good to break old habits sir." - Knox
"And what's wrong with old habits Mr. Overstreet?" - Dr Hager
"Well they perpetuate mechanical living sir, they limit your mind." - Knox
"Mr. Overstreet, I suggest that you worry less about breaking old habits and more about developing good study habits. Do you understand?" - Dr Hager
"Yes sir." - Knox
"That goes for all of you. (Grabs one of the students by the left hand.) Now, eat with your correct hands!" - Dr Hager
Everyone proceeds to eat with their right hands again. But when Mr Hager goes to another table, Charlie stuffs an enormour meatball into his mouth with his left hand.
Neil looks for Keating in his room and tells him about his dilemma. Keating advises Neil to have a talk with his father again, to try to change his mind. And if he still doesn't agree, Neil would just have to wait until he graduates before he can do what he really wants.
Knox looks for Chris at Ridgeway High. He corners her in her classroom and reads her a poem in front of everyone.
"The heavens made a girl named Chris
With hair and skin of gold
To touch her would be paradise." - Knox
Extra Scene- Keating's last lesson. Lights are off, students are blindfolded and listening to a classical piece on the record player. Bell rings and Keating turns the music down.
"Words can never contain as music does, the unsayable grace that cannot be defined. It leaps like light from mind to mind. That's it for today boys, keep it in there." - Keating
All students leave except Neil.
Keating approaches Neil and asks if he has spoken to Mr Perry. Neil lies to Keating and claims that he has agreed to let him do the play. Keating appears unconvinced but doesn't question Neil further.
Nwanda, Knox, Todd, Meeks and Pitts prepare to go watch the play. They are well-dressed and in high spirits. Nwanda even paints a red thunderbolt on his chest, which he claims to be the Indian symbol for virility.
Just as they are about to leave, Chris arrives to look for Knox. They rest go ahead in Nwanda's car while Knox and Chris talk in the snow. Chris warns Knox about Chet as he has learnt about the poem incident. Knox senses her concern and asks to be given a chance. Chris eventually agrees and they walk together to Henley Hall for the play.
At the theatre, Neil opens the play as Puck and gives a superb performance. Knox arrives with Chris and they hold hands throughout the play. As Neil is about to come on again, he spots his father amongst the audience, but '...the play goes on...'. At the end of the play, Puck delivers the closing to a standing ovation.
"If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumber'd here
While these visions did appear.
And this weak and idle theme,
No more yielding but a dream,
Gentles, do not reprehend;
If you pardon, we will mend;
And, as I am an honest Puck
If we have unearned luck
Now to 'scape the serpent's tongue
We will make amends ere long;
So, goodnight unto you all.
Give me your hands, if we be friends,
And Robin shall restore amends." - Puck
Amidst celebrations backstage, Neil is asked to see his father, the only one to remain in the theatre. An angry Mr Perry confronts Neil and pulls him home. Outside, the students and Keating stop to congratulate him, but Mr Perry demands Keating to leave his son alone.
Back at his house, Mr Perry informs Neil that he will be transferred to a military school. After his parents go to bed, a half-naked Neil dons Puck's crown of thorns, opens the window and shoots himself.
At the dorms, Nwanda wakes Todd up with news of Neil's suicide. Todd goes beserk and runs off in the snow.
In the classroom, Keating is alone as he opens Neil's desk to reveal the poetry book which he had given him.
Extra Scene- Keating and Mr MacAllister in lounge, tea in hand.
"Don't be so tough on yourself John, this is not the first school to have to cope with this kind of... John, these acts of adolescent desperation can be touched off just as easily by failing exams or unfulfilled puppy love. You know as well as I do." - Mr MacAllister
Extra Scene- Everyone is at the church service of Neil.
"Let us pray. Oh God, of grace and glory, we remember before thee today our classmate, Neil Perry. We thank thee for giving him to us, to know and to love as a companion on our Earthly pilgrimage. In thy boundless compassion, console us to mourn and give us faith to see in death the gate of life eternal. Through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen." - Minister
Another general assembly as before. Mr Nolan announces that there shall be a full enquiry into Neil's death.
Later in the cellar, Nwanda, Knox, Meeks and Pitts are talking about the turn of events as well as Cameron's absence. Nwanda concludes that he must have gone to tell Mr Nolan about DPS, which turns out to be true. When Cameron arrives, he defends what he did and asks the rest to do the same thing. He claims that they can save themselves, as the school is just looking to use Keating as a scapegoat for Neil's death, to protect its reputation. Nwanda gives Cameron a punch and gets expelled.
One by one, Knox, Meeks, Pitts and Todd are summoned to Mr Nolan's office. There, with their parents beside them, they are made to sign a confession putting blame on Keating for Neil's death, or face expulsion. Keating is sent off as a result.
Last scene. Mr Nolan takes over Keating for Literature lesson. He asks the class where have they stopped at for the last lesson but no one can answer him. At this moment, Keating enters the class and proceeds to the store to retrieve his belongings. The students are greatly disturbed by his entry, especially Todd. Finally Mr Nolan decides to start with poetry and asks Cameron to read Pritchard's Introduction. Cameron replies sheepishly that he can't do that because the page is not there anymore, as is the case for everyone. Mr Nolan hands Cameron his own book and asks him to read from it. As Cameron reads, a smiling Keating peers in from the store and meets the gaze of Todd. Just as Keating walks past the class, Todd sobs uncontrollably and stands up to ask for Keating's forgiveness. Keating nods and says that he understands. Mr Nolan tries to control the situation by asking Keating to leave and making Todd sit down. Just as Keating reaches the door, Todd suddenly stands on his desk and proclaims "O Captain! My Captain!". Keating looks on at the doorway with a knowing look and smile as Knox, Meeks, Pitts, Hopkins and several others too stand on their desks, despite Mr Nolan's frantic warnings. The rest on the class bow their heads in their arms as they remain seated. Screens close. Credits roll.
