I think I’ve found my calling making dead poets memes like I’m genuinely gleeful when I come up with a new meme to post (also I’m scheduling this post and I feel like Eliza Lam—anyone??)

Dead Poets -First Name Basis
I’ve been thinking about when Mr. Keating switches from calling the boys Mr. Last Name, to when they are called by their first names, and it seems to be always during pivotal moments for them.
Charlie: For Charlie it was just before he said “To indeed be a god!” symbolizing his transformation from Charlie to “Nuwanda” and his deep leaning into all of Mr. Keating’s teachings.
Neil: For Neil it was when he went to Keating’s office to talk to him about his father’s control and being told to quit the play. And again just after the play, when he showed his talent and passion and truly followed his heart.
Both of these moments were moments when Neil was trying to get out of his father’s watchful gaze, and live for himself for once.
Todd: For Todd it was when he was telling Mr. Keating that they made them all sign for Keating being fired, and right as he’s truly going against the authority and rules, finding his voice as loudly as he can, and leading the others to start their own revolution for what they believe is right.

I absolutly LOVE Mr Keating, but if he did that impromtu poem scene to me I would never ever forgive him, no matter how good a teacher he might be, I definitely would've start crying on the spot.

Mr Keating.
Fucking.
Knew.
He knew full well that the anxious poet and the depressed theatre kid were unbelievably gay for each other.
God I’ll never get over these two-

The weird thing about being a dead poets society fan is that none of us wanted Neil to die, but he HAS to. It’s so weird that we’re drawn to the greatest tragedy that we don’t understand to push a message; would seizing the day and trying to be creative and yourself in a broken system actually move any of us to tears if I didn’t end in the death of one of the boldest characters?
Also, would it hurt this much if it wasn’t suicide? If he had been murdered, would it feel different? Would it feel more like he was robbed rather than left with no other option? Would the meaning of the movie mean less without his suicide? I think the answer is clearly yes, but from a narrative standpoint even though it would change little with how the movie ended (I think) it would be such a different experience as a viewer
