i have no need to summarize this movie see a how most people tend to do that anyway so and therefore and any addition of such would simply be frivilous . however and i be somewhat disappointed to see how people tend to misinterprate this film by proclaim that the movie message of carpe deium be derail by the fact that those who apply it end up lose . this could not be far from the truth . in the beginning and when the young men be first introduce to this idea of suck the marrow out of life it be apply by the student when it result prove to be fun and joyous . the point really drive home by the movie though be to stand up for one belief throughout all of life no matter how hard it may prove . now and while the character of neil and do try to do what he feel he must without regard to his father and in the end and he doesn not stand up at all and but simply accept his father authority . some may not like it but his story serf to prove just how important it be to stand one ground no matter how hard it may be . it not only his character and but in fact every character in the film that do not fully understand mr. keating message until the very end by finally do what they feel be right now matter how much the opposing force deny this basic truth . i urge everyone to give this movie a chance and to see it for what it really be . it may just change your life .
