In the opening scene from Peter Weir’s 1989 film Dead Poets Society, the ceremonious activity and formal relations reveal some skeptical intensity and proud aggression. The packed pews of the church and the sounds of bagpipe music led into a rallying speech from one of the school’s administrators. The tense sounds of the music and sounds of the loud clapping illustrates the proudly hopeful parents, but the meek worry of the soon to be students. The high expectations expressed by facial expressions and communication seem to intimidate the incredulously numb children for their upcoming semester.
nice response, hurl. Some good close observations here.
