Dead as Dead

From the beginning, Dead Poets Society had a dark and disheartened feel that administered a sense of depression. The sunken faces of the boys who were about to enter the ceremony, resembled both fear and anxiety. It was clear from the start that the tensions were high and the emotions even higher. The dimly lit pews of the sanctuary withheld somber students and parents alike. While the headmaster delivered his speech, he had a sinister smirk that portrayed signs of arrogance. Tears set in among the younger students as they were pulled away from the comforts of their parents. It was clear from the intimidating teachers to the towering buildings, these kids were held to high expectations.
