Anyone see this movie?

I've seen it a bunch of times and find it very touching and it gets me all emotional.

If you've seen it, what did you think of Mr Keatings, the teacher? Did you think that what he was doing was a good thing or not, based on the type of school it was and the boy's backgrounds?

It's all a bit blurry in my mind. Is that the one with the cease-the-moment catchline?

That's right - Seize the Day. Sorry for the typo.

I liked the movie overall, only found the plot somewhat simplistic. It's sad that somebody had to die to drive the point that there should be allowed different type of teachers for different type of students.

just happened to have noticed this old post....I do believe it was the father's fault if I remember correctly the storyline. Now, that was a good movie!!

I don't remember much about the movie but I remember loving it. Robin Williams was amazing.
