"The Dead Poets Society" ( Peter Weir )

From the Paper:

" Education in 1992 Politics and The Dead Poets Society
The declining quality of education in the United States has been a concern for decades, and it was a concern in the 1992 presidential campaigns. Education during this election year was viewed by both Clinton and Bush in fairly broad terms, although the components of finances, accountability, and leadership are inherent in the problems of improving the schools. The recent movie, The Dead Poets Society, also concerns itself with difficulties in education, and it is the purpose of this paper to compare and contrast the political positions with the issue of education as portrayed in the film. Examination of media material on education actually revealed few differences between the two candidates, and for that reason, the two parties' views are for discussion purposes mostly explored as a single view."
