dead poets society

i bought the special edition DVD of Peter Weir's Dead Poets Society. This film hold many memories for me such as it being the first movie I saw an advanced screening of, such as watching the film with my crazy cousin who stopped the movie half way and gave my sister and I a lecture on siezing the day (because we were obviously not picking up on the major theme?) and such as watching the film with college friends in our 2 story house, living below three women we all despised, standing on our couches, banging the walls, screaming Captain! My Captain, until the bitches came down to see what the commotion was (i think we started throwing our beer cans at them, prompting them to move out the next term and letting three of our good friends move in, so that we could put holes in the wall and set garbage on fire). Ah! Dead Poets...

The special edition DVD has some awesome interviews and behind the scenes looks at the film making process and as I am beginning my career as a filmaker, it was good to watch the footage of a film that has stood the test of time throughout my life.

i recommend this to everyone.
