Todd's evolution as a character is, to me, what this movie is mainly about. Between Mr. Keeting and Neil, they finally got him to come out of his shell. He's the leader at the end of the movie. They are gathered around him in the snow. He's the one that stands on his desk first and they follow.
Great point 💯
True fact: the actor playing the headmaster is still alive today.....
.....He’s 106
And is the the oldest living actor
He actually just passed away sadly.
Yes last week
Imagine seeing as a teenager when it first came to theaters. Powerful.
"CARPE HER DM'S"
I'M DEAD LMAO
This type of ending stays with you for days! Amazing!
Days? Freaking years!
@@rustincohle2135 it’ll stay with me until I died
@@mukhom yup. Gen Xer here. I saw it in the theatre when it opened. I have probably watched it 100 times. It still leaves me raw and weepy.
when you said you were hoping for something light...honey, you've got a big storm comin
this comment 😭
I think your interpretation of the "Sweaty-Toothed Madman" poem was pretty spot on. The way Keating brought it out of Todd was brilliant. There are points where Todd gets self conscious and opens his eyes with worry. Keating waves his hand over his eyes and forces him back inside himself and eventually opens him up. A wonderful scene.
And that final scene. "Oh, Captain my Captain." Always brings a tear welling up. Always.
Robin Williams was so damn good at whatever he tried in acting. Many have suggested "Good Will Hunting." Another great Williams performance. The man could bring you to tears with laughter and with pathos. Funny how the most outgoing people are the ones that internalize their fears and trauma. It just doesn't seem right.
One of my favorites. Mr' Williams and this movie.
Also I would highly recommend "What Dreams May Come." It's kind of cheesy but I LOVED it.
Great reaction. And I loved your boarding school stories. I never went to a boarding school but I was taken out of public school and sent to a Catholic School. Was initially pissed off but it turned out to be great fun. Like you said, a good group of friends can make all the difference in the world.
I watched one reaction from you and I think I'll subscribe. Then I'll go and see what you have reacted to already and have something to watch. Hopefully.
Peace
Hello, hello! I really loved your observation of that Keating-Todd interaction. I didn’t notice that before but now that you mention it, it really does make that scene all the more poweful 🥺 I’m really keen to commit to a massive Robin Williams movie binge sesh so What Dreams May Come would be a great addition. Thanks for watching and have an excellent day!
@@themothershiptv Forgot to mention. You are probably too young to have watched the original "Twilight Zone." Maybe you've seen an episode here or there? I don't know. It ran from 1959 to 1964. It was one of the greatest TV shows ever created. My opinion, I know, but I just love it so much.
Anyway. There's an episode from the third season titled "The Changing of the Guard." I think you should give it a watch and see if you agree with me that it MIGHT have had some influence on the writer of "Dead Poet's Society."
Reacting to it wold be awesome, but just watching it would be good. Have some tissues handy, though.
Peace. And keep watching movies.
@@bryanburton6087 ooh I am always intrigued to see tearjerkers and this already sound promising! I haven't seen the Twilight Zone but the sci-fi fan in me is excited to see William Shatner in this :) Peace ✨
@@themothershiptv Shatner isn't in this episode. "The Changing of the Guard" stars Donald Pleasance. Shatner did two "Twilight Zone" episodes. "Nick of Time" which is a great episode with Shatner being Shatner. Then there's the classic "Nightmare at 20.000 Feet" written by Richard Matheson. (Of "I am Legend" fame) Shatner chews up the scenery in this one. "There's a man on the wing!" Classic Shatner in a classic story.
Heck, I would recommend almost every episode of the original "Twilight Zone" show. Only a few clunkers in five seasons.
"Walking Distance" "Time Enough at Last" "The Last Flight" "The After Hours" "The Howling Man" "Eye of the Beholder" "Night of the Meek" "Shadow Play" "The Obsolete Man" are all from the first two seasons and are among my favorites. So many more. I can't gush enough about this show.
Check out some of them. I'm not sure reactions would get much traction as the show is old and in black and white. Kids these days probably wouldn't get you the views you need to keep reacting to it viable. But on your own time it's well worth a watch.
Rod Serling, who created the show, had written an episode for a television show in which a black man gets lynched in the south. TV executives were leery of producing such a show and recommended that Serling switch the setting to New York City and make the main character white. Serling was disillusioned but it led him to create the "Twilight Zone" where he could bring up topics such as racism, hatred and evil but cloak it in the guise of sci-fi, horror and fantasy.
It worked. The "Twilight Zone" covers so many controversial topics but nobody was ever bothered by it because it's just make believe.
Serling wrote most of the episodes himself, but he had Matheson, Charles Beaumont (who is a crazy, genius of a writer. Watch "The Howling Man" to see just how creative he could be) Earl Hamner, jr. and many others single contributors.
The writing on the show was top notch. And many famous actors wanted to be on the show. So many names that us old people recognize and love made appearances.
I'll stop rambling now.
:-)
Peace
@@bryanburton6087 yo this legit sounds like something I’d like to watch and dissect. Thank you for the recommendations - at least I know which episodes to check out 🙏 much appreciated!
I grew up in the 80s, and this is my favourite film of that era. It takes just a moment of certain scenes for my eyes to well-up, and the standing-on-desks finale is still a tear-jerker.
i absolutely love this movie, it hurts in a way i can't even describe but it's genuinely so beautiful and just... too freaking good. Even though there wasn't essentially a happy ending, their lives changed forever and Mr. Keating (as well as Robin Williams) definitely left a mark on all of us. My favorite movie ever :(
Peter Weir's career is pretty major, and very undervalued. Gallipoli, Witness, Fearless, Master and Commander - all exceptional films.
Philip Concannon I’d love to see a Master & Commander reaction. No one has done it yet (that I’m aware of).
He truly is an exceptional director with a lot of range. Too bad he's pretty much retired.
The Picnic at Hanging Rock and The Year of Living Dangerously are my favorites of his.
I’m so glad I found this video! my favorite movie, and I love your commentary!
This movie really is gold 🤩 Thanks for watching!
12 mins and you had already guessed how the film was about to turn
Up until that final act 🙃 I’m still recovering
@@themothershiptv Its such a great film, one of my fav's. You done Jaws too, which is my fav film btw. Have you ever seen The Shining (1980)? If you havent....you really, really should
@@king26thfc ooh yes I love The Shining. I haven’t seen the latest sequel though
@@themothershiptv would like to hear your analysis of The Shining though...I mean it has so many possible theories and questions. The sequel is not bad, great villain in Rose The Hat, but I didn't like the third act (sadly)
@@king26thfc dang okay I should check it out. But a commentary video on The Shining actually sounds really fun and its been a while since I’ve last seen it so I’m up for that. Thanks for the idea yo!
Just embrace the tears. Crying is good, and being honest with your emotions is a sign of personal strength. Don't ever feel ashamed about showing what you feel.
My favorite movie ever, and also the movie that inspired me to be a teacher ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you for reacting to this movie
That was one of the most heartfelt and beautiful reactions I've ever seen.... Thank you and I'm saaaaacribing!!!!!!
✨🙏 thank you for taking the time to watch! Have a great day!
It was so interesting to watch along with you hearing about your own experience with boarding school!
RIP to the amazing Robin Williams.
LOVED your reaction 💕
Have you guys heard of the foreshadowing of the windows?
So the theory is that in the story Neil told at the beginning the woman sees the mad man at the window before she dies. Neil opens the window symbolizing that he is letting the mad man in.
He’s letting the pain and his suffering from his father take over.
I read that in another comment on a video like this...
CHILLS
I won't comment much on this masterpiece of a movie as everybody has praised it as much as it deserves. But I do want to comment specifically on your reaction to it. Your life experiences, intelligence, and interests elevated this film to a whole new level. I absolutely loved hearing your insights and reading the little comments you'd put on the screen while editing. This film may have been the perfect one for you to react to. I watch a lot of these, and even manage another reaction channel and edit one of their shows, so when I say that this is the best reaction I've seen to this particular film, it carries a lot of weight to it. I see you've just recently started doing this and this is the only movie you've done so far that I also love, so I haven't checked out your other reactions yet. But I look forward to see your thoughts on any future movies you choose to react to.
Congrats on getting this past the YT copyright bots on your third try, and I wish you luck with this channel's growth. You've made a hell of a first impression for me.
Hey there friend! I just wanted to tell you how much this comment means to me. As always, I am completely floored and humbled that anyone would take the time to watch my content. I was very touched reading this and am super grateful that you enjoyed this reaction. Thank you for the well-wishes and I hope the reaction page you manage is also flourishing and successful.Please feel free to drop your channel name because I'd be more than happy to subscribe and support a fellow reaction channel. Have a good one!
It is a pure joy watching your content. I feel it's commentary with real honest thought put into it. Not many channels manage to do that I think.
So thanks for making me think, smile and feel! Been a while since anyone did that.
Hey there, I just wanted to reach out and say I really appreciate your comment and am grateful that you enjoy hanging out on this channel. Hope you have an awesome day/evening and take care!
If you don't look, it hurts less. Lol 😆 🤣 😂
Love the quality reaction content. Great editing and notes, really top notch and I appreciate seeing the effort above and beyond. Really sets you apart. Subscribed!
Hey thank you so much 🥺🙏 I’ll defo be sure to upload more. Have an awesome day!
This is the 1st reaction ive seen from you.......absolutely great! Very very well done.
Yes! Third time’s a charm🙂
Edit: What a great reaction. Man, you’re good at this. Not very many people are.
Amen to that - third time is definitely a charm 😭 thanks for watching yo!
there were actually a few boys who weren't in the society that were affected by Mr keating and they did stand on their desks
Great reaction! You actually provide an insightful commentary, which I can't say about most reaction channels. Keep it up!
I enjoyed hearing about your boarding school experiences. I went to an all-girls boarding school in the south of England during the 90s. I went there from the age of 8 until I was 18, and I loved it (I started asking if I could go when I was 6). I loved the fact that I got to live with my friends and we grew up really close. It wasn’t a particularly strict school, the teachers weren’t allowed to whack you with anything and we didn’t have to call the teachers ‘sir’, though I do still to this day finish everything on my plate and make my bed in the mornings. It became my home far more than the place where my family lived.
We loved this movie and watched it a lot. It stimulated my, and some of my friends, stirring interest in English Lit, and I went on to study History and English at university. We also enacted the ‘o captain my captain’ scene from the end a few times - yes, we were a weird bunch.
Really enjoyed your reaction and insights. 🙂
I recommend Swing Kids. Another touching coming of age movie starring Robert Sean Leonard (Neil) and Christian Bale.
Really love your channel and your take on this movie. Just watched it recently myself.
Saying sir and mam is proper and polite. I hope it never goes away.
Aaah, I really loved this video and your reaction to this. I watched this movie for the first time back in March and I still think about it almost everyday. All I really want to do is introduce other people to it now lmao. Thanks for reacting to it!
Recommendations: Ordinary People, Good Will Hunting, Together [Lukas Moodysson]
Stumbled upon your channel! I love your videos and the layout themes. 💕 subbed!
Thank you so much🙏 🥺 I have more videos otw very soon!
That's one of the best films ever made. RIP Robin Williams.
I don't usually comment on reaction videos but this is very well edited. you get the flow of the story as well as the flow of the reaction. It's a shame you have so few videos, I'm sure you could get a decent following with this quality of content.
Hi there! I just wanted to say thank you for the nice comments. I truly appreciate feedback like this. It definitely gives me a lot of hope and motivation to get back into it 🥺
I adore your movie reactions! Looking forward to more!
Heyo, thank you so much! I have a whole heap of em on the way so stay tuned :)
@@themothershiptv My excitement has skyrocketed! 👏👏👏
Hey, Kid. Welcome back. Glad to see you're still digging into stuff not often seen on CZcams reaction videos. It really makes a difference. I haven't watched this one in nearly 30 years, so it was interesting to get a fresh take from your perspective. Dead Poets Society was never one of my favorites, despite being an effective enough prestige picture for all involved, and a nice vehicle for Williams at the time. I can say, though, if you liked it as much as I think you did, DO check out Peter Weir's other work. He is, for my money, the greatest of all Australian filmmakers, and enjoyed an underrated, nearly flawless career for 50 years. His weird stuff is the best. Every once in a while, Weir's ideas would align with Hollywood or the Australian film industry, and something with real intelligence and soul would suddenly appear out of nowhere. Dead Poets Society was kind of like that. Although I would recommend watching all of Weir's stuff, my favorite is probably Fearless, a very special movie that I still can't believe a major studio put up the money for. That's a great one, and the less you know going into it, the better the experience will be.
I am completely sold on going through Weir's oeuvre now (especially to see Fearless and Ordinary People) - thanks heaps Jesse! And it really is great to be back 🤩
@@themothershiptv Ordinary People (a vanilla prestige flick, which stole the Best Picture Oscar from the likes of Raging Bull and The Elephant Man) was actually a Robert Redford movie, not Peter Weir, but is still worth watching for Mary Tyler Moore nearly topping Mommie Dearest in the bad momma department.
Im going to recommend Quiz Show, and The English Patient ( because when you put in the comments about the cinematographer that movie came up as well which reminded me of that movie in addition to the first one). Love your reaction keep it up. Be yourself do what you love I love that you bring your own experience into this and don't do what everyone else is doing just because they're getting the same audience in the same views because they're focusing on things that they may not particularly like be different be daring good luck :)
Also this movie gets better on rewatching. Still tough butthe things that you miss because of the traumatic ending tend to come into more Focus after the first time.
Love that your watching Dead Poets, and rocking a KISS shirt. 😊
Gotta love KISS 🙌🏽💪🏾
What a great reaction. Hope watching "Good Will Hunting" and "Arrival" is in the near future?
that was an amazing reaction, especially with your knowledge of boarding school dynamics and with your love of Shakespeare.
If you would like a few more movie recommendations, my top 5 movies are:
In the Name of the Father
Empire of the Sun
The Abyss (director's cut)
Almost Famous
Stranger than fiction
Thank you for the solid recommendations! I’m not exaggerating when I say the abyss has scarred me for life. I’d love to rewatch it again because it’s been ages since I last saw it and I’m very keen to see the others as well ✨ have a good one!
I really liked your reaction, it was intelligent and funny at the time :)
Aye thank you for watching mate! Much appreciated!
You should look up "Farewell Mr. Bunting" on CZcams. It's a kind of homage.
Great pick! Fearless is a lesser known but great Weir film. Witness is a classic. I second the recommendation for Ordinary People, as it seems to be an inspiration for Good Will Hunting.
I was 14 when this movie came out.. I didn't go to a boarding school, but I went to a college preparatory private school. My brother went to a boarding school for a couple of years as did friends I grew up with as well. But I still have some of the same relatable feelings you do of knowing the parental pressure and the like. I grew up fairly well off and thankfully my parents didn't put too much pressure to do certain things, match my brother, or go into a certain field. My guess is that you are of possibly Indian heritage. I had several friends of that background and I knew of the pressure that their parents put on them. I knew two brothers who were expected to both be doctors. The younger one did and the older one went into computers. The older one expected to be disowned. Thankfully he was not.
also ur channel is so poggers u deserve more followers !! ur v pretty too btw
One of the best inspirational teacher movies has the exact opposite setting. Instead of an exclusive prep school, Richard Brooks' 1955 "The Blackboard Jungle" is set in an inner city public school. It stars Glenn Ford as the teacher and Sidney Poitier as one of the students. It's a harrowing and violent movie for 1955 but unforgettable!
Probably the first inspirational teacher movie is 1939's "Goodbye, Mr. Chips" with Robert Donat also set in a boarding school.
Besides "Picnic at Hanging Rock" and "The Truman Show", Peter Weir directed other great films like the "Mosquito Coast" and "Witness" both with Harrison Ford, "Gallipoli" with Mel Gibson, "The Way Back" with Ed Harris and one of my top ten of all time, "Master and Commander" with Russell Crowe!
You can't go wrong with Gus van Sant's "Good Will Hunting". Terrific Williams performance. If you want madcap Robin, see Terry Gilliam's "The Fisher King".
Have you ever seen:
Ridley Scott's "Alien",
Michael Mann's "The Last of the Mohicans",
Carol Reed's "The Third Man",
Sidney Lumet's "12 Angry Men",
Milos Forman's "Amadeus",
Adrian Lyne's "Jacob's Ladder",
Alfred Hitchcock's "Rear Window",
Andrew Stanton's "John Carter"?
Whenever I see someone watch this movie and make predictions, I always sit there like: "You have no idea, I am so sorry". Ugh, to watch this movie for the first time again would be incredible, but I'm also glad I know the end (now I just stop the movie after the play, that is how I cope lol)
im been binging reactions to this movie lol
It gets better when you watch it again.
You should watch the deleted scenes Todd has a bit that is amazing.
Enjoyed your reaction. I hope there are more acclaimed dramas you can watch with us.
thank you! I definitely have more reactions coming very soon :)
My favorite movie. I actually started a DPS with my friends when I was in school abroad. The writing, acting, score, and cinematography for this movie are fantastic. I love all the poets (except Cameron) but Nuwanda was always one of my favorite characters ever.
I love this reaction and your channel, BUT god how I hate it when people look away from movies when scenes are too intense, it's like no you have to sit through every frame to feel what they want you to feel pls watch loll
OMG YES honestly this is my pet peeve too! Unfortunately your girl got very conscious of her ugly cry face. But this is defo a great reminder to fully appreciate every scene, so I'll be sure to put it into practice, thanks!
Same!!
one of my favourite movies for sure . and my interpretation of todd’s poem : i think that it symbolises how he never feels good enough for his parents , he’s always living in his brothers shadow. i like your idea too, it sounds highly plausible but i think it might be more personal to him?
I really love your interpretation! Definitely makes a lot of sense in that context. I never fully considered how he must feel with his brothers rep on his shoulders and the more i read your comment, the more this really resonates. Thank you for sharing! ☺️🙏✨
Just found you and see you haven’t done a reaction in 6 months. You should do more if you are able. You are very insightful and intelligent and have great reactions and I’m sure everyone would love to see more.
I really appreciate this - thank you! I definitely have more reactions coming very, very soon :)
I saw this when it opened in the theatre. Insofar as Robin Williams, I suggest Awakenings. If you choose to watch a film that will leave you feeling even more raw than this I suggest Fresh.
I would suggest also "The world according to Garp", also with Robin Williams. But not if you dont want to cry a little at the end...😋
Love this film!!
Can i join the club? 😭🙌
Have a couple more Robin Williams movies to suggest, first a really cool fantasy called "Jumanji" where Williams was the perfect choice, and it has a good ending. Second is one also recommended by another commenter below, "The World According to Garp". All I can say about that one is WOW! You just gotta see it for yourself.
"Carpe diem !" Hahaha lol
“Mmmm, poetry cult.”
I- LMAO
First time I watched this I thought it was implied that Neil and Todd were in love but then I remembered when it came out lmao
It may not have been on purpose but they were def in love not sorry
I wish i could watch it for the first time again 😭
My favourite movie of all time -"The Truman Show"!!! *cough**Peter Weir*cough*cough*
16:22 ooh that's really good
I've never seen this film before but I feel like I have now. Have you ever seen 'The Elephant Man' (1980), 'Awakenings' (1991), or Good Will Hunting (1998)?
Ooh no I haven't! But I just searched them up and Awakenings stars both Robin Williams AND Robert DeNiro! 🤩
@@themothershiptv All excellent choices! What aboutL Heat, The Sting, The Usual Suspects
@@innercircle341 I am incredibly uncultured! I haven't seen Heat or The Sting but I have seen The Usual Suspects and I wish I could watch it again for the first time. AMAZING.
Me when I see that you put ‘me and Neil are the same person’ 👀🤧
Girl: About feelings and respect? STEALING HOME( Mark Harmon, Jodie Foster).Youll cryyyy.
I really loved your reaction.
Sorry for my english, I'm from Chile.
I think Robin Williams and Neil saved Todd.
I see him becoming a poet.
I just read an article about some interesting facts about the movie (for example, that Robin Williams was going through a depression when they we're shooting the movie, because he had divorced reacently; Peter Weir did not allow the actors to use modern phrases during the whole process; the cast had to sleep in the same room, and watch a movie from the 50s everyday) and that made me want to see it again.
I started searching for scenes in CZcams and I met with your reaction.
In the video that you reacted to they didn't include a scene that really elevates me everytime I see it, so I would like to share it.
Peace and love from Chile
m.czcams.com/video/-7OE6bDfM2M/video.html
Hi Rodrigo! you're right that scene you sent is incredible! Definitely one of the best in the film. Thank you for the trivia I had no idea how much thought and preparation went into this movie so I really appreciate it all the more now. Stay safe and well wishes your way friend!
Hi there!
This movie has a gigantic heart.
It's been such a long time
since I haven't seen it.
Now I'm older,
and I seem to like it
so much more.
I wanna keep it, now and on,
close to me.
I wanna definitely keep watching
your reactions.
You have such a good vibe.
Thanks to you!
My best wishes to you too,
and take care!
My suggestion for a reaction is Remains of the Day. It’s another difficult but rewarding movie. Otherwise, any Merchant/Ivory movie would be good.
"Rugby Union, not League." Absolutely right!
Oh yeah! ✊🏼
Is the good will hunting reaction coming any time soon?
"friendship goals (neil & todd)"
also dead poets society: **is part of the lgbtq+ movies trope**
Heh, that’s what I thought as well
Many are called. Few are chosen.
You should check out "The Fisher King" (1991) for another amazing Robin Williams film directed by Terry Gilliam of Monty Python fame.
Picnic at Hanging Rock is an interesting movie.
I have to say your reaction is one of my all time favorites. For anything. But I went to a Canadian Anglican Boarding School. It was actually scouted as a location for this movie. They went for a place in Massachusetts, I believe. Is a taste for self-deprecation an unavoidable consequence of being educated by British Colonialists? You and I could form a case study.
I saw this movie in the theatres the summer before I went to school. Ohh... And I cried like a 6-year-old with a scoop of ice cream on their shoe.
Oh gosh you hit the nail on the head with that observation. I never really considered the kinds of impact that there’s a lot to dissect there!
Also I rewatched it twice now and I agree - it really does feel like a child dropping an ice cream. Gets me every darn time!
Watch Once Were Warriors (1994), from New Zealand. Very well done and absolutely heart-rending.
My school used a paddle like the the one in the movie and I would've much rather preferred a ruler on my knuckles because the paddle stung like crazy.
Todd's poem.:
"The sweaty tooth madman is reaching out and choking me.
He has a stare that pounds my brain and all the time he is mumbling.
He is mumbling truth.
A truth like a blanket that always leaves your feet cold....it will never cover any of us.
From the moment we enter kind to the moment we leave dying it will only cover your face as you wail and cry and scream."
For what its worth I dont actually have an interpretation of Todd's poem but just some observations and questions. A blanket is meant to keep us warm. This one won't or can't. Then the truth that is mumbled from the madman's mouth will never be satisfying to us. It will always leave us needing more, wanting more. I found your interpretation that the blanket symbolises our attempt at idealizing reality to be perceptive and better than any interpretation I can come up with. Why does the blanket cover the face? Why from birth to death we are under this blanket in deep pain and suffering? Does being alive imply we are forever to live in ignorance, in darkness under a blanket?
Great observations! In fact the more I think about it, the more complicated the poem becomes. Here are some more half-cooked thoughts for the questions you asked: Why does the blanket cover the face? In a literal sense, the face harbors 4/5 of our basic senses (taste, hearing, smell, sight) - by covering these up, the blanket acts as a barrier against what we can process as facts or reality. Why from birth to death do we suffer under this blanket? Honestly, I have no clue. I'm gonna make a big assumption and say it could possibly be an inevitable outcome of the systems we have in place (just like how the issue at the school was a systemic issue) but I'm no philosopher so I'll leave this to someone better equipped than I am to answer this. Your last question is another tough one. In my very unqualified opinion, I think it really depends on perception. For most of us, being ignorant is comfortable; it provides a sense of security in a very uncertain world. so yes, putting a veil over some ugly truths does help us get through most days. I'd love to hear more from you and anyone else on the subject. Thanks for this comment as well - These are always my favorite!
@@themothershiptv I must say I kind of miss my English classes back at school (a long time ago). We delved deep into novels, plays and poetry to uncover a deeper understanding led by our teachers of course. Nowadays I hardly do and my experience of film and literature is often on a surface level only. For a while I considered Todd's poem to have been ad-libed by Williams and Ethan Hawke but now I'm pretty sure it was scripted. For me the whole scene was like a magic ritual with Robin Williams bringing Todd out from his prison inside. Like an initiation rite.
Peter Weir, the director, is a master film-maker and other movies of his to see would be 'Fearless' with Jeff Bridges and 'Picnic At Hanging Rock'. Picnic blew my mind and still haunts my imagination but is slow and might not be suitable to do a reaction to. You love Shakespeare? Have you seen Roman Polanski's Macbeth (1971)? An extraordinary experience. Its as close to time travel into the past as is physically possible. The lead roles were magnificently played by John Finch and Francesca Annis.
Keep up the great channel and YES give me rugby union any day over League.( I have never seen the point of rugby league)
Maybe trying out good will hunting would be a rewarding too.
so... Good Will Hunting next :D
Hello! If you can, react to Patch Adams (starring Robin Williams) :)
Also, don't cut so much, i would love to see (almost) the full reaction hah just a sugestion!
Love your videos plus your beautiful and intelligent. 😍😍
Great juxtaposition from declining grammatical variants of a dead language to the active use of the same dead language to communicate "seize the day" to his students. This and "Scent of a Woman" and "The Paper Chase" are the best school/college movies IMO, with special mention going to "A Beautiful Mind."
But perhaps reality isn't reality. Perhaps the true reality is what we face once we've died.
The question is, how broad are you? Can your subscribers suggest films from genres such as thriller, horror, comedy, action?
Heyo, great question! Absolutely - I’m really interested in broadening my scope of movies so any and all suggestions are welcome!
@@themothershiptv Just like Jaws, the following films were hugely popular in their time and all have BIG CZcams fandoms today. It might pay to react to those on this list that you haven't seen already, along with the type of films you actually prefer: 'The Godfather' (1972), 'Westworld' (1973), 'Close Encounters of the Third Kind' (1977), 'Star Wars' (1977), 'Alien' (1979), 'Airplane' (1980), 'Mad Max - The Road Warrior' (1981), 'The Thing' (1982), 'This is Spinal Tap' (1984), 'Back to the Future' (1985), 'Aliens' (1986), 'Predator' (1987), 'The Naked Gun' (1988).
@@edcatt6003 this is a great list! Thanks heaps 🙏 looking forward to reacting to these 😊
Too bad he made them rip the chapter in that book where they graph the grandiosity of the poem.
Because they would have noticed that in the next page the author says "this is a bad way to measure a poem".
Oh for real? Oops 😬
pls y'all tell me i'm not the only one who's one hundred percent convinced that neil and todd were in love-
As a teacher myself, I disagree with your thoughts on education and conformity. I maintain that schooling is conformity while educating is not. Many people use these words as synonyms, although the two are very different.
nice taste in movies, these are all classics, you outta watch close encounters of the third kind
Since when it is ashamed to cry for a movie ???
Um....why would you edit out your emotional (crying) reaction to the film? That's the whole point of why we watch someone react to an emotional film like this (to watch you feel what we feel)....kind of a rip off, frankly.
Good reaction!!But,you talk too much!!!!You get out of concentration!!
Unpopular opinion: this movie kinda sucks. The first hour and 20 minutes give nothing to the story. It never gives any more info on the guy and Chris. Finally, there were many moments that had nothing to do with the ending such as the magazine in the cave and the desk set.
I’m sorry if you do not agree. Like I said it’s an unpopular opinion. I think the message of the movie is good, just the majority of it is boring.
I personally love the desk set scene because it shows how lonely and abandoned Todd feels and how Neil is the only person who knows how to take care of him. It just makes the ending so much sadder.
Also, the entire Knox and Chris storyline is extremely creepy and I honestly wish there was less of it.
