Make your lives extraordinary!

Have been meaning to fly the flag for the wondrous Dead Poets Society special edition for ages. If the truth be known, this film, starring Robin Williams, Ethan Hawke and Robert Sean Leonard, just narrowly misses being in my Top 10 Films list. It's probably no. 11. It's glorious. Utterly glorious. Who knew that a film made by an Australian director in 1989 which replicates the life of academia in the '50s would become so timeless? So, forget your troubles, dust off your copy of Byron, evoke the spirit of Whitman, carpe diem and add this to your collection of the finest movies ever made.

"But only in their dreams can men be truly free."

(John Keating, Dead Poets Society.)
