Clip I: Neil’s Clash with his father (I)

NEIL: It's open

NEIL: Father, I thought you'd gone.

MR PERRY: Keep your seats fellows, keep your seats. Neil, I’ve just spoken to

Mr. Nolan. I think that you're taking too many extra curricular activities this

semester, and I've decided that you should drop the school annual.

NEIL: But I'm the assistant editor this year.

MR PERRY: Well I'm sorry Neil.

NEIL :But Father, I can't. It wouldn't be fair.

MR PERRY: Fellas, would you excuse us for a moment?

MR PERRY: Don't you ever dispute me in public. Do you understand?

NEIL: Father, I wasn't disputing-

MR PERRY: After you've finished medical school and you're on your own, then

you can do as you damn well please. But until then, you do as I tell you. Is that

clear?

NEIL: Yes sir. I'm sorry.

MR PERRY: You know how much this means to your mother, don't you?

NEIL: Yes sir. You know me, always taking on too much.

MR PERRY: Well, that's my boy. Now listen, you need anything, you let us know,

huh?

NEIL: Yes sir.

Clip II: Mr. Keating’s Classroom presentation

KEATING: Why do I stand up here? Anybody?

CHARLIE: To feel taller.

KEATING: No!

KEATING: Thank you for playing, Mr. Dalton. I stand upon my desk to remind

yourself that we must constantly look at things in a different way.

KEATING: You see, the world looks very different from up here. You don't

believe me? Come see for yourself. Come on. Come on!

KEATING: Just when you think you know something, you have to look at it in

another way. Even though it may seem silly or wrong, you must try! Now, when

you read, don't just consider what the author thinks. Consider what you think.

KEATING: Boys, you must strive to find your own voice. Because the longer you

wait to begin, the less likely you are to find it at all. Thoreau said, "Most men lead

lives of quiet desperation." Don't be resigned to that. Break out!

KEATING: Don't just walk off the edge like lemmings. Look around you.

KEATING: There! There you go, Mr. Priske. Thank you! Yes! Dare to strike out

and find new ground. Now, in addition to your essays, I would like you to compose

a poem of your own, an original work.

KEATING: That's right! You have to deliver it aloud in front of the class on

Monday. Bonne chance, gentlemen.

Clip III NEIL and Todd

NEIL:I found it.

TODD: You found what?

NEIL: What I wanna do right now. What's really, really inside me.

TODD:"A Midsummer Night's Dream"?

NEIL: This is it.

TODD: What is this?

NEIL: It's a play, dummy.

TODD: I know that. I-- Wh-Wh-What does it have to do with you?

NEIL: Right. They're putting it on at Henley Hall. Open tryouts. Open tryouts!

TODD: Yes, so?

NEIL: So, I'm gonna act. Yes, yes! I'm gonna be an actor! Ever since I can

remember, I've wanted to try this. I even tried to go to summer stock auditions last

year, but, of course, my father wouldn't let me. For the first time in my whole life I

know what I wanna do.

NEIL: and for the first time I'm gonna do it whether my father wants me to or

not! Carpe diem!

TODD: Neil, Neil, hold on a minute. How are you gonna be in a play if your

father won't let you?

NEIL: First I gotta get the part, then I can worry about that.

TODD: Yeah, but won't he kill you if he finds out you went to an audition and

didn't even tell him?

NEIL: No, no, no, no. As far as I'm concerned, he won't have to know about any

of this.

TODD: Well, that's impossible.

NEIL: Bullshit! Nothing's impossible.

TODD: Well, why don't you just call him and ask him? And m-maybe he'll say

yes.

NEIL: That's a laugh!

NEIL: If I don't ask him, at least I won't be disobeying him.

TODD: Yeah, but if he said--

NEIL: (shouting angrily) Jesus, Todd! Whose side are you on?

NEIL: I mean, I haven't even gotten the part yet. Can't I even enjoy the idea for

a little while?

Clip IV NEIL’s Clash with his father(II)

NEIL: Father.

MR. PERRY: Neil.

NEIL: Wait a minute. Before you say anything, please let me ex-

MR. PERRY: Don't you dare talk back to me! It's bad enough that you've wasted

your time with this, this absurd acting business. But you deliberately deceived me!

How, how, how did you expect to get away with this? Answer me. Who put you

up to it? Was it this new man? This, uh, Mr. Keating?

NEIL: No. Nobody-- I thought I'd surprise you. I've gotten all A's in every class.

MR. PERRY: Did you think I wasn't going to find out? "Oh, my niece is in a play

with your son," says Mrs. Marks. "No, no, no," I say, "you must be mistaken. My

son's not in a play." You made me a liar of me, Neil! Now, tomorrow you go to them

and you tell them that you're quitting.

NEIL: No, I can't. I have the main part. The performance is tomorrow night.

MR. PERRY: I don't care if the world comes to an end tomorrow night. You are

through with that play. Is that clear? Is that clear?

NEIL: Yes, sir.

MR. PERRY: I made a great many sacrifices to get you here, Neil, and you will

not let me down.

NEIL: No, sir.

死亡诗社誓词：

“I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately ...

I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life!

To put to rout all that was

And not when I came to die, discover that I had

我步入丛林 因为我希望活得有意义 ...

我希望活得深刻 汲取生命所有的精髓!

把非生命的一切全都击溃 ...

以免在我生命终结时，发现自己从来没有活过 ...
