But I think the movie made it clear that Neil had been unhappy for a long time. I agree that the suicide was a waste of life. And yeah, both Ethan Hawke and Robert Sean Leonard had such baby faces. I'm glad he was strong enough to stand up for Keating at the end and hope he kept that strength and made a great life for himself. The two people who had gotten him out of his shell and appreciated him for who he was were gone. The person I feel the most sorry for is Todd. But, yeah, I hope the dad spends the rest of his miserable life feeling guilty as hell. It being the 50s, kind of understandable. She was just unable to stand up to her husband. So have fun rotting in the miserable childless hell you've creating for yourselves, assholes.Īgreed on his dad. Anyone with eyes could have seen that Neil had been miserable for years and his parents made it worse. Mainly cause there is a chance I would fail the jump or fall off the table.Īnd while I know it's horrible to wish losing a child on anyone, Neil's parents deserved it. As a teacher today I can tell you there is no way in hell I would that. It got ticked with zero comment made about the ridiculousness of it. So in response to being given the scenario about a rowdy class of kids who aren't paying attention to anything, I decided to write that I would jump on the desk and shout some stupid thing. I had a feeling that the lecturer wasn't actually reading the educational diary/journal/reflection thing we had to keep. Having said that I do remember referencing the scene where Robin Williams jumps up on a desk to get the class attention during my uni days in my teaching degree. Poor little 10 year old me could not handle the fact that someone actually stayed dead when they died in a movie. My innocent mind couldn't handle the suicide, he was meant to come back as a twist and explain that it was all a hoax. First movie I ever saw where things didn't end happily. Do not ask me why but it was the movie chosen to be shown at a slumber birthday party and I was about 10 I reckon. I have only seen the movie once, and it traumatised me.
